yes i did run 17+ s13grl. and thanks for reminding me because i almost forgot. i appreciate it. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/mad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':angry:'> as for the altitude thing, i doubt it would make that much of a difference(i was at Englishtown, btw). its not going to make up for 17.5 seconds. its kinda like the same thing about removing the sound system. ill worry about that once i start hitting respectable times and want to shave 10ths off of my time, but for now i just wanna hit 16! well i guess ill try power-braking next time, that should definetly help. btw, ca18guy i only spent $100 on the venom(used). and actually, its the most noticable upgrade i have done to my car so far. its a very underrated bolt-on in my opinion. well im going to be getting a JWT ECU soon. and i just got my header in yesterday(hotshot new model). so once i add those 2 & learn to power-brake i should be doing a little better. ive been considering a dry NOS kit as well. its a safer system(well about as safe as NOS is gonna get anyway) that hooks up through the intake, instead of mixing in directly with the fuel. thanks for the tips guys. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

'> oh, and about the 1-2-Drive auto shifting thing, its really bad for your transmission. escpeially an old one such as mine. id blow it in no time.
