I can verify that my 2013 M6 300A car with the spare tire/jack out of it but completely stock otherwise weighs in at 3515 with 1/2 tank of fuel and no driver. I'm 250 and it comes in at 3765 with me in it.
Bolt-On All Motor AED GT goes 10's:

That's why I suggested he pop on a CAI now that he has officially established to everyone's satisfaction, except maybe yours, that his car runs 10's. Then again,why should he waste his time. He's already shown a power increase on his dyno. Oh wait, dyno results are crap, too.
Doesnt the track have a scale you could get on while you are there?
So is "STREET" trim what you ran 10's on minus 80lbs for the slicks/skinnies? So that would be 3500lbs during those 10 second runs give or take a few right?
The only reason I am trying to nail you down on an exact weight of your car is because you have done quite alot of weight reduction mods and are saying that your about the same or about 50lbs lighter then our car and I'm just trying to get a more accurate number as you know weight is a mod in and of itself. :beer:
Thanks,

Track has 2 scales, one digital, one old school with the weights. They do not match each other with any amount of accuracy, although they are good for A to B comparison. IE, how much weight was gained/removed, but actual numbers don't match our Shop Corner scales.
Street trim minus slicks/skinnies minus 8gallons of E85 = 10 second weight +/- 15lbs since the fuel gauge may or may not be totally accurate and I gained a little weight recently.
I do have a lot of weight reducing mods, but I still have the front sway bar bolted up, still have 14" front brakes, all accessories, stock K-member/a-arms, Stock clutch/flywheel, etc.
Car is set up for the Road Course.

So you'd say somewhere in the ballpark of 3480 then?
Sounds about right. 3340ish without driver.
I'd love to see this down an additional 150lbs, but I don't see how it's possible and keep the current *all around* setup. (street / road course / drag)

You just don't get it....
It's only money right? Go out and buy one for your car and belive it does something for performance. That s exactly what these vendors want you and others to believe.
Ron White said it best, "You can't fix stupid.".
I only got mine because the stock box looks like shit
Very impressive! Moderate weight reduction and a sick 60ft go a long way! Great job!
congrats on the runs,
as far as customer service is concerned. It isn't that lund doesn't care.
Shaun said it himself, he does 4-5 email tunes a week. Lund does about 100 per week.

If you are talking about CAI's the stock one isn't really a restriction until you are in the 10s. It is a really good design for what it is, I know it is hard to grasp especially considering the number of years where the factory intake wasn't always the best and you could pick up some HP by switching but the factory CAI is pretty good.
Thats part of the reason I bought a base car with low options, LESS WEIGHT!! :beer:
I would love to drop another 100lbs and go for a new best this fall!!!!
I have to get with you soon Kris. I will call when I get free.

dang i thought the air in Michgan was good at 760'.. thats some good dense air i think thats the point.
dont forget to get those insulating foam inserts from the dealer that keep the hot engine air from getting under the boss intake in front and back, preventing convective heat transfer to the intake. cant get em from ford racing, only the dealer..
Not a thing wrong with that. :beer:
The stock airbox. It comes with the price of the car. ;-)
