I heard rumors about a stock ST running approximately 17 sec. on the 1/4 mile. My best run has been 18.00 sec. flat! That's REALLY bad! I have an auto ST with and Injen intake, HP header, stock piping with no resonator and with only one cat (figured i'd redo the piping once I begin project 7a-fte). I'm just asking for advice and help, so don't waste your time clowning me for having auto. Also I realize running on 18" wheels will hurt, but damn 18 sec.???? Would an exhaust leak from my header be the culprit here? Any help is appreciated. Thanks guys.

u are expecting too much from an ST - 7AFE . Considering you are from florida, it shouldn't be a problem for you to perform a 3S-GTE swap.. Your car already looks agressive, now give it a powertrain that can back it up smile.gif

Even if you turbo the 7A-FE, it will still be slow, the celica is one heavy mother..
