Never did i say it was BONE STOCK. I said it had the CAI, X-Pipe, and Catbacks. Thats it.
She's right. The second someone hooks up a handheld (not married to the vehicle) it would tell you if there was a modification to the PCM.

Well lets look at it this way. She picked up 4 tenths of a second on ~10rwhp? Im thinking the gears (4.10s that she has talked about) were in. I deffinately do believe she was driving the car, her being 115lbs is like having a horse jockey driving. LOL (not trying to offend you, just saying you're better for the car than a 230lb guy)
Here you go, hun. 10 runs to date in the 12.92 - 12.99 range. All three 12.92 slips in particular are photographed individually. The rear end work, tune, and JLT were installed in the middle of the season, when the weather became too hot to set the world on fire. :thumbsup: Best of all, these 10 passes were ran with stock Goodyears, BBK X-pipe, & SLP LMIIs only. :dancenana:
Note: I'm in car #7317
My 03 (automatic) weighed 3470 with me (I weighed 150 at the time). Little weight reduction being the front sway bar, jack, and spare tire were removed. Also, there was some noticable weight difference between the stock h-pipe and the o/r x-pipe (naturally). Best numbers were 12.900 108.49 1.938 with a filter and x-pipe (on street tires). Mach 1s are all around excellent cars.
I'm still confident that 03-04 Terminators and 94-04 GT/Cobra convertibles are comparable with the weight of S197 coupes. :burn:
Stock converter and stock 3.55s -- K&N filter and a junky BBK X-pipe. Thank you.
I'm a Mach 1 fan, but I've seen a lot of 05- GTs RUN their asses off. But I've also seen 15 second passes at the track. With all the variables, the driver is #1. You can't judge an entire lineup of cars by ONE single driver a street run!
I remember seeing Car & Driver (maybe) test an automatic Mach 1 and went like 14.40 in it. My first pass ever down the track in Feb of 2003, it went 13.50 -- and I think it was running 30s by the end of the day.
12.90s stock everything except drop in k and n and midpipe, with an auto? No dr's, nothing else?
I'm sorry, but I find that hard to believe 'everything' stock except midpipe and filter with an A4 mach..12.90s that is.
ANd 13.3 is the best I've ever heard of with a bone stock auto.
Below sea level maybe?
Well, since 13.3 is the best you've ever heard, I guess it really isn't possible then, huh?

Want me to dig up the slips? I drag raced the car every weekend from February of 03 - June of 04. And we're at 15' above sea level. The track prep isn't golden at our home track though. You don't need drag radials with a stock geared automatic Mach 1! The stockers let it come out just fine at 18psi and spin slightly through 2nd. Good control and traction the whole way down.
To back it up and say it's possible -- my g/f went 12.92 with the same junk x-pipe and an SLP LMII catback.
Probably a 5-speed car on street tires. Typical.
Exactly. I've seen Terminators go high 13s at my track. :nonono:
Tone down the Attitude man. If I was trying to be an ass, you'd have known it. I never said it isn't possible, show me WhTF I said that? There are alot of people tossing BS around. I recently got done reading a thread where someone yelled and screamed bone stock 13.1....then later said with DRs. Obviously low temps, and low sea levels have alot to do with it.
I have been around these cars alot, and I (like other people) have a heard time with claims outrageously outside of the norm without proof. 13.3 in a bone stock auto mach is .24 quicker than I've (AND OTHERS) seen a slip for. 12.9 with drop in filter and midpipe (no tune, no nothing else) is a good .3-.5 quicker than anything I've heard of. In fact, it's on par with an M5 mach.
So, yeah, when someone tosses shit out there that is Questionable, you're darn right I'm going to say something. I call it like I see it. If you have a problem with me saying something to that affect, let me get you a tissue. Because It's gonna happen. In fact, I'm surprised to all hell I'm the only one saying something about it, especially given how much flak I got in this thread defending machs and sh!t (no offense sillver).
ANd since you offered....yep, I would like to see the slip...along with a vid of the inspection that that car was 100% bone factory stock.

How about you re-read the very last line of what i say is done to my car??

Im sorry, the CAI was NOT on there when i did those times. That was my fault. It seriously wasn't. It was the Goodyears, X-Pipe, and Catbacks. That was it.
The 13.3 and 12.90 my b/f said were about HIS mach 1 which he doesnt have anymore
And I know he doesn't ahve it anymore. I've been a member of the reg. for a long time.
Let me be the one to step up and say this is getting out of hand. First of all, if you have been a member of the registry for such a LONG time, then you would have remembered my posts from back in early 2003 when I was considering "one of the fastest N/A (stockish) automatic cars in the country"???
She posted the slips. You call us both liars. This is an internet forum, but I'll stand by my word. I'm not a bullshitter about ETs. I'm a drag racer and do it OFTEN, actually REGULARLY. Once again, I'll see if I can dig up some video of her going 12.92 and post it this weekend. :bash:
I agree with the getting out of hand.
Liars?..well, that's up to one's perception. I'm open to teh idea that there is some modding that you aren't aware of (hers being used) as apposed to straight out lying. I re-read your post when I re-quoted it. You did have some weight reduction listed, but then stated filter and midpipe. So, In short....IDKWTH to think. It's all to 'inconsistant' IMO.
POst up a vid if you want....but unless it's an inspection proving the 13.3 was 100% BONE STOCK or Her runs were ONLY midpipe and catback running 12.9 with an A4......I won't even bother watching it. Then again......there still leaves 'tuning' out of hte Q too.
WHy do you feel I should comment about how long I've been a member? Unlike you, I still go there, every day. I've been a member for over 4 years...what does that have to do with anything. (not to mention I 'visited' before I registered).It's nice how you didn't bother to back up your prior comment of "how you've been a registry member for quite some time". Throughout the whole post, we were talking of 05- 3V vs 03-04 Mach 1 4V POWER and WEIGHT. So, I noted both. I'm sorry if the information isn't as "consistent" as you'd like it. I pulled the ring gear from her car and it is CLEARLY stamped 3.55 -- I actually just sold the parts on eBay today. (check my other posts and recent auctions ended by seller: cobrastang123) I'm clearly intelligent enough to inspect a "stock" 04 Mach 1 to look for any "modifications". This car was a clean, unmodded, low mileage piece from MA. Bought it earlier this year.
I don't even know why I bother.... Let me see if anyone else tears the ring gear out of their car in the staging lanes at the track... hooks up a WDS to see if there is any aftermarket programmer install... or jacks the car up in the air ALL FOR A VISUAL INSPECTION. I don't have to prove anything to you. You wouldn't believe anything I say anyhow because "the internet is full of bullshit and liars".
She installed them mid-year.When did the 4.10's and tune get installed? Something doesn't add up...
Me and racingracine have witnessed 69mach03's 03 Mach run 12.9x's with a drop in and O/R X. The three of us also stripped that car to the bare unibody piece by piece after it's life was up. So I can vouch for his mods.
If anyone in here knows how to make an auto mach run 12's with minimal mods it would be him. So why is it so hard to believe his GF wouldn't able to, at the same track, using his extensive drag racing experience?
I personally didn't know auto machs running these times were so unheard of
And My best friend can vouch for me having a lamborghini in my garage. Catch my drift?
I'd be more apt to believe her than him. She at least posted slips (min. mods or not).
Unheard of? I've owned two machs. 13.3 BONE FACTORY STOCK is completely unheard of for an A4. ANd here we go again, you say midpipe and drop in, yet earlier he first said min. weight reduction and those two mods, then said those two mods only.....WHICH IS IT? DAYUM.
Next y'all are going to say you had DR's on the damned car. Either that or a tune.
