bolt-ons, tune and a new clutch. Old clutch would've given a 5.5 0-60 as well, but might as well include the new one.
I dyno'd right at 200 whp with my mods. But i've got a custom tune waiting for me as soon as i can get my tuner fixed, one of the usb ports got smoked somehow, go figure.
You can beat the 0-60 times on this car when stock though, but not 5.5 seconds, most people can do 0-60 in about 6.2 or 6 flat sometimes. 5.5 isn't really that impressive.
I've gained around 20 horsepower to the wheels with my current mods. So about 10% more horsepower.

Oh I see cool..You have some good power going to the wheels! My 0-60 time in my SS is 5.03 seconds with my current mods. Have you taking her to the track?

Not since i changed my setup.
Although my buddy has a very similar setup to me and ran a 14.2 @ 100 the other night at the track. I feel i would run low 14's as well, but it's very dependant on my launch.

Cool well good luck if you do end up going back on reaching your goal

My car was built in Ohio. I'm not sure what you're getting at here
The only thing from Japan on this whole car is the transmission.
Yeah, and our Titans were imported from Canton, MS where they were designed by Americans. I'm not sure what YOU were getting at, but our trucks aren't imports.

We still own imports...
A lot of japanese car companies make and design their cars fully in the US, because it makes sense for their business model.

Toyota, Honda and Nissan all do this.
There's a huge difference between your Civic and our Titan, the biggest being the Civic originally came from Japan. There's a JDM Civic, the US-built '07 Civic only had 55% parts content from the US, the '08 has 70%. Not enough to really qualify as a domestic vehicle. It was designed in Japan by Japanese, it's an import.
The Titan doesn't come from Japan. It wasn't designed by the Japanese, there is no JDM Titan, etc. It's more American than some "American" vehicles that end up being built in Canada and Mexico. Parts content isn't 100% US, but there are NO domestic vehicles with 100% domestic parts content.
Using the logic of "It's a Japanese company therefore it's an import" is flawed. Going by that logic, all of Chrysler's vehicles would be "imports" while under the ownership of Daimler.

I think my 0-60 Calculated is about 5.2, so you should def be low 14's if you run 5.5 0-60's WOOT...Plus I'm not sure what your car would trap at, but if its higher than mid 97.7 (highest I've trapped) then you may be nipping high 13's on a cold day
it should be somewhere close to 100 mph. As soon as i slap my custom tune on, i should gain some top end, and my afr's should be more inline with what they should be.
right now, literally my tune is an off the shelf tune with a few cam angle tweaks and a couple of other things.
This is all nice for midrange power, but it lacks what the topend should truly be, and the crossover on these cars is one of the most important parts to getting topend.
