I dont think my g is suppose to fast like a bullet, but i have raced an evo with mods and he couldnt break 14, his new one barely broke it at 13.9.
Please dont tell me the purpose of these cars, ive said it on here a few times, i know what these cars were made for. Im at the track to see what the bolts did for me. i gained whp on the dyno and before some mods my best time was 14.1 but now im at 13.5, so i have gained time.
My ecu is not flashed, i returned the hypertech and got uprev and got it dyno tuned. 277/252 to 290/259 on a mustang dyno.

Running out of bolt-on's then FI is the next stage. But plan to spend lots of $$$ of you want to go FI, since one single mishaps will result in major repairs.. Been there, done that.. 
For our G, just keep it plain and simple on the bolt-on's, and do aero / wheel / cosmetic upgrades..It's really meant for looks more than tracks.. (too heavy), imo.

i went through this same thing (kinda). Modded my g almost as much as you (besides headers) and found myself not satisfied. Its impossible to make good power on a NA motor, i mean 4.08 gears do help a lot.
I ended up selling my car and buying an STI. Im very glad i did, lots more modding options too.
Back on topic, one great thing about the g is the motor is very robust, meaning you can FI it without having to go forged (obviously within reason).
Your time at the strip is great for the G if you ask me, try turning up your flux capacitor next time

DUDE! So you started at 14.1 and are currently at 13.5? Yeah I would say that you've done a good job and should be happy because 0.6 seconds with all bolt-ons is pretty good. I get what you are saying that you aren't trying to run the 1/4 for sport, but gaging what the bolt-ons have done. Thats how I am as well. But fro whatever reason, the must be something about the IPL that makes it a little quicker than a regular G.

if you did it in florida then you have a lower altitude, but post a slip cuz people have different definitions of similar numbers. its not the "stillen products", i gained around 50 hp with all my mods but i just dont know why i didnt see results over the ipl.
did you dyno your car before and after?

You need to stop worrying about ET. 50% of your ET comes from the first 60' of the track. You can't compare true power with ET.
Since you trapped about 2mph more than the IPL, you are probably making about 15-20hp more than him. You were slower out of the hole. It's not a big deal.

Really isnt, and when you spin that much I let it bounce off of the limiter to catch up to speed, or I shift in to lower rpms then needed and have boost lag.. The bouncing is from spinning not from me just letting it bounce while i have full traction. Couldnt even launch
