Well, if it makes 360 at the crank, then it will have about 295-300 @ the wheels. What headers does he plan on using, because 1 7/8 is too big for that engine. Heck, even a 4" catback isn't necessary. I think with a good 60 ft' and everything else to match like a good set of runners, and plenum, etc...he should be able to hit mid 12 's...but my guess is a high 12 or low 13.

 

I agree!!!

The headers are too big and so is the exhaust. As for the kit, I am building that same setup for my buddies T/A. I am still gathering parts, but I have big expectations for the setup. I can tell you that your chip selection will be critical. You can buy a Hypertech, or whatever, but you will never get all the performance until a custom chip is made for that car.
