i think all zx3 are going to get difrent times,like on a dyno they would't all get 130 hp or 100 whp.bouth in average they would be around there.also depends of how much you weight (no offence),good driver... specially in the 60ft.most people say 16.5 to 16.8 and a 60ft of 2.3 with stock tire or any street tires,but i was never able to hit that not even with my mods that are not much as you can see below.good luck! hope you do better than me..........

If you get adjustable cam gears and tune them well it will help alot because one of the main reasons 1/4 mile times arent consistant from the factory is the loose tolerances in cam timing.

Why do you have a mil eliminator if you dont have a race header, unless you just dont have it listed?

From his thread in Zetec Tuning:

so what hapends if i put in the mil without installing the header. will it be any side effect (good or bad)?
He has a race header, but it's not installed.
