the prelude has some work done to it and was going for broke doing the run. the mustang was not launching it all out or powershifting it as its his only wheels right now. I told him break and you will be walking for awhile..... the mustang is my sons..

Where are you shifting? That trap seems kind of low. My '98 trapped in the mid 90's.

The Preludes are quick. I got walked by one in my '95 GT Convertible, which was probably a mid 15 second car at best.

i was shifting between 5300 and 5500. probably could have took it a little higher. i have my heads and everything to do the swap right in the garage. how did your car run with the pi heads

Trying shifting it lower. Anything above 5100 rpms is just noise. I think I had my best results shifting between 4900-5100.

I ran 14.5s @ 96.xx all day long pre-headswap. After the headswap with the stock 2.73s it ran 13.9s @ 102 mph all day long. These were box stock heads/cams and intake, stock manifolds, no tune.
