Need some advice and good guesses

  1. Well Tunerfest is this coming Saturday and Im really itching to try out my car in the 1/4 at least once. Im covering the event for ImportAtlanta, but im paying the 30 to park inside, and Im free to run anytime during the day so inbetween shooting, I was thinking about doing it. However... Ive got a few questions.


    1- What does an average wagon with a good driver pull in the 1/4. Ive got a K&N Typhoon, and a full 3" Turbo Back Exhaust. Good tires also of course.

    2- Bad thing is, Im not tuned yet, and I will be eventually in the next month. I know the 04's and 05's have an issue of running lean because of the open/closed loop problem, but Ive gone WOT occasionally with no sounds of detonation or ping. Ill check plugs after each run, just in case. Thoughts on this?

    well after you get tuned, you wont have the OL/CL issue anymore, it's eliminated except for during engine warmup. Before i put my turboback in i could definately feel the switch around 4000-5000 rpms, probably was leaning out cylinder 3 so i stayed off it.
