i have just saved up to order off of 3sx the following:
- headers
- test pipe
- underdrive crank pulley
- and injen short ram intake
i dont have a vr4, just a 1993 base model. what kind of extra performance do you think i'll get out of the car (0-60, 1/4 mile, everyday driving). any other moding suggestions?

if it is a manual DOHC you are looking at low 15's if you know how to drive...the fastest NA 3/s ran like a 14.1 at 100mph...

Yeah... but i doubt he is going to get anything close to that with just those simple mods

well 15's for sure i suppose then lol
one thing you can get for better 1/4 times is the LSD...this helps you launch much better...all the mods you are buying are also going to help...a lightweight flywheel will also be a good mod.

What do you consider to be a good weight Sebba?

there really is no 'lightweight": mitsubishis besides the old mirages....even DSM's are heavy. skylines and supras are heavy too...so are ferraris...so what they still have potential.

yeah sl's really aren't that heavy compared to the vr-4. and low 15's on those mods really doesnt sound that acurate. the cars are much faster than that.

No...sorry i looked it up ..and compensated for the mods that wont actually give him faster times.

and yes low 15's are accurate...ive looked it up...its called
www.3si.org maybe you have heard of it? but ive seen lots of low 15 and high 14 sec NA 3/s's all DOHC manuals of course.

What are the mods on those with running those times?

from mostly what i have seen...LSD, catback, test pipe, lightweight flywheel, maybe a couple tranny mods...but nothing huge like a stroker kit or anything...
