Low 14 is pretty weak for that setup especially at 9 psi. A b16 pushing that much boost should definetely be AT LEAST a mid 13. He must have had some bad 60 foots...what was his trap speed in the 1/8? There are a few people with sohc i/h/e/55 shot coupes hitting a mid 14.

As you can see in the video he had a bad reaction time too. With slicks on his car and better Air Fuel management and a dynotune to improve his torque curve, he should be in the 8's. Plus these are on street tires. But still it is very weak. He has traction problems mainly.

And then again, the Tracks around the country Vary.

Who knows what he would do in your location with the same setup.
