I was very proud of my times for my mods.
I have a cut-out, no cat and KN intake. All the free mods and a tune-up. I was shocked when I saw a 102 MPH trap. My 60' ft was a 2.1. I have SLP headers and Spohn lower control arms sitting next to me waiting to be put on. I haven't decided if I want to put 1.6 rrs on my daily driver. Anyone think I can touch 12s with 1.6rr, Headers, LCA and tuning?

i dunno bout getting 12s, but i do know what the trap and 60, with some drag radials you should get a 13.5

Nice times for no more than what you have. I hope I'll be surprised when I run at the track.

Add a Vigilante converter and a 3.73 gear then put some drag radials on and you should be close to 12.90's.

With the right converter yea, very possible for 12s. My Trans Am, 3.23s, stock manifolds, worn drag radials, stock cat, 17s up front ran a 8.79 in the 1/8. Thats about a 13.6 in the 1/4, I also cut a 1.9 sixty foot. If I were to bring the 60 down to a 1.7 and have skinnies up front I could easily go low 13s, as is. So your car with a Vigi, 3.73s and headers should easily go 12s on drag radials. My converter is a 3200
