How quick?

[Fast Farmer]

How fast and quick have you guys been with a "stock appearing" car? 93 and race gas setups and times please. I am seriously considering putting it back to stock appearing status. Need all the good tricks to keep most of the performance, though. Thanks guys.

TSA guys are running 11.13 to 11.9

Been 11.9s with both a Buick and a TTA with all stock stuff.. You really don't have many mods in your sig. Why change ??

Hey Grumpy, I didn't say I was going to put it back stock. Just "stock appearing". As in heavily modded, but completely stone stock looking. You don't see many that look stock anymore.

ok I see.. Prob something like this ?? Never got around to see if we could get a turbo shield on it.

That red battery and those fancy hose clamps are a dead ringer for a race car

hahahaha... this pic was the first clamps we used when we were thrashing to get the car at the track. I had those in a stock pile.. I don't use those cool guy clamps. We use RJC's with no problems an look "normal" Here are the other clamps. Ran Atco a week before and put this motor in for Reynolds, Ga. A day swapping motors. Different TB an Plenum. Really to shiney for me.

Really?!?!

Seems like the stock air box & the SLIC intake would be the main restrictions. I've heard rumor of a trick stock air box with a solenoid mounted inside to lift the center section clear of the outer section to allow more air into the filter. Please understand that this was just a rumor.

Yep almost identical to what is in the picture. While I love the performance, I really appreciate seeing one every now and then that "appears" to be unmolested. Kinda like going to the car show and seeing most any muscle car that is completely stock looking. I just don't want it to run stock.

someone did that tweak to the intercooler scoop.. Have no idea if it helped at the drags or not. I don't think the SLIC is a restriction.. Melissa's GN had an old V4 CAS SLIC that she ran 9.94 @ 138+ with. BIGGER isn't always better (talking car stuff here)

I guess what I am trying to say is I would like to have a stock appearing "sleeper"
