2004 c5 (4A)QUARTER MILE?

hey all,
I have a 2004 stock C5 (4A).
has just 9k miles on the clock.
What quarter mile time can I expect,
Is the enginge run in yet, and developing max power, or will that come later at about 15k miles
Also any figures on what i will expect for the 0 ~ 60mph dash ?

Quarter mile - probably somewhere around 13.3-13.5. Zero -60 should be somewhere around 4.8.

depends if you have 2.73 rear or 3.15 also.

2.73's and my car went 13.2's in great weather bone stock.

It really depends on weather, track conditions, driver, but I would say that a 3.15 would be 13.0-13.3, but I have seen very high 12s too.

Just checked the sticker, and the code equates to the 2.73 diff.

So On a decent day, should be looking at low 13's
and sub 5 seconds to 60 ?

During nearly perfect conditions yes. I would just go for mid 13s. If you do better great. If you don't at least you didn't set your expectations too high.
