'96 Camry at the 1/4 mile drag strip

Circled are me.

1st slip, some nice old American Muscle car.

2nd slip, New Charger RT

3rd slip, My friends Legacy 2.5GT

Nice times you've got there. Good work. Especially for a Camry of that age.

[Guest]

wow, 14s... that is a damn good effort.

[trentmeyer23]

Well it is TRD supercharged

Well it is TRD supercharged

AND at 6psi...

I was expecting slightly better times than that. But... that comes with practice ay? No doubt if you had a Manual and were more experienced, you could probably shave another second easily right?

[ASG14]

^ Not a chance in hell would I shave 1s off that without more boost.

Stock the car is 16.5 or so in the 1/4. My friends were surprised how fast it was too. I was expecting a 15.0. If I get a better exhaust, upgrade my injectors, get a lightweight crank pulley, and take like 100lbs (seats) out of the car, I may just "tap" the high 13's.

Adam,

How the hell couldn't a manual transmission not help you? They're lighter for a start and you can get them going much better???

[ASG14]

Oh, it would help a LOT, but not 1s faster without more boost I don't think. 1s is a lot more then you realize. I wish I could easily break into the 13's....

[Whip Cracker]

Oh I'm pretty sure 1 second is alot, never said it was "easy" so to speak... but damn. "Bigbird" on TN says that a manual 1MZ is about the equivalent of a S/C'ed 4psi Auto 1MZ?

[ASG14]

Pretty close to it. The Auto takes 10whp away. And that would be 4PSI with no other mods. My custom intake, and the headers/exhaust added like 30whp......

To get those sorts of times in my 96 Camry , I'd have to drive it off a quarter-mile high cliff.
