Hey guys..I've been drag racing a 3.3V6 Dynasty. I only race at a 1000ft strip. My best run was a 14.24 @ 73.24 Anyone have any ideas on how to beat this time without any major modifications? I have installed a K&N filter, new plug wires and autolite platinum plugs and has a 16" glasspack muffler. I have lightened it up as much as I can. I'm guessing it's running 150-160hp and weight 3300 with driver. Any help will be appreciated. p.s. I have pictures of my car if you're interested. : )

Just for fun, try a set of stock champions in place of those auto lites, I put bosch platinum in my 3.5 intrepid, and my 91 318 4x4. The intrepid performance went down, started short shifting at 6200 and 5900 at WOT in drive, they both turned to snot at cold weather starting, they would fire and quit at 32 F first thing in the morning when I tried to start using command start. All info I got said platinum is a worse cunductor than steel, they self clean because they get hot like tungsten in a toaster when electricity passes through. Service bulletin for the intrepid said go back to champion, and avoid platinum plugs unless they are original equipment. Just a thought, let me know what you find if you try it please.
