When my SVX was bone stock i ran in the 16's the two times i took it down the track. Now that I have a 5MT i fully expect to drop 1/2 second off my previous times. Shifting won't be a problem with a sawed off short shifter, about 2" throw from first to second. I can't wait to take it to the strip again, but I think i'm going to wait to get the stage 2 installed, and perhaps exhaust.

NikFu - The SVX was 15.4-15.6 second žmile off the factory line. 100+k miles later, you can't possibly expect it to hold the same times, without modification and very good maintenance.

Ricochet - 17 seems awfully high for what you have done to your car. I'd defidently pull the codes for that CEL sooner rather than later, too.

Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, scotch in one hand, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming HOOOOYA !!!!!
