here are my 1/4 times in my MP3
my mods are: AEM Short Ram intake
Resonator removed and 2 inch piping from 2nd cat to muffler inlet.
19lb Rota Tarmacs 17x7.5
RT: .76
60 ft: 2.54
330 ft: 6.975
1/8 et: 10.7
1/8 mph: 65.4
1000 et: 13.95
1/4 et: 16.6
1/4 mph: 82.6 mph
i have since ran with the stock mp3 rims which weigh 24lbs and i removed the 2nd cat and 2.25 piping and i ran almost the exact same times....
so the weight increase offset the performance gain from the 2nd cat being gone

I have a Mazda 323 with a 1.8 BP DOHC, and I checked on 3rd gear and I'm getting 85mph @ 7000 rpm. I only swaped the engines not the tramsmisions. CLICK-HERE-TO-SEE-MY-RIDE

The last time I ran the Quarter mile I got a 16.04 @ 80 MPH and 1/8 mile was 10.8
Now my current 1/8 mile time is
.547
2.503
6.968
10.681
64.02
With the quicker time, I should be running a high 15 sec Quarter, being I dropped 2 tenths of a second.
