Auto, GT, 50k. Mid 17s with exhaust, intake, underdrive pulley, s-afc. MID 17s. Good lord. Other people say they hit low 16s bone stock, what could be wrong with my car? Where do I start? I'm going to check the compression, plugs, and then wires. Oil is good, anyone else got suggestions?

154k miles? lol that could be wrong. You're double clutching and performance driving a car that needs to be babied to keep surviving. I kill my car and its at 113k....mine prolly ownt even last til 125k....lol. Keep on double clutchin man...thats so fun! you should add 150shot of nitrous and see if that makes ur car die or not. At least it will be fast in the few seconds before you blow up. lol. Sorry I';m really loopy because of some medicationsions so im sorry
