Anyone with this set up?

Anyone have this setup: M6 lt1 with LT headers, stock dual cats, borla catback(open), K&N CAI, 1.6 roller rockers, 160 thermo, underdrive pullies, ported throttle body(I can do it for free, so why not), TB bybass(again basically free, why not), subframe connectors, SPEC clutch, and a madz28.com mail order tune.

If anyone has this, or something similar, what did you hit?

What do you think would be the et and trap with drag radials in the 1/4 mile, and how much rwhp and rwtq do you think it would put down?

Also what do you think it would run with a 4.10 gears in the stock ten bolt(still debating doing this).

I ran the time in sig with a similar setup. I have full exhaust, 1.7 roller rockers, and pcmforless tune. I'm sure with some 4.10's I would be running 12.7's.

Re: Anyone with this set up?

Well right now the car just has the borla catback, and the K&N CAI, I just bought the car after getting rid of my 87 LG4 automatic Formula. Either way, this car is way much more fun to drive then that old turd.

Kazman, which car did you run the 12.80s in? I am guessing the 383...

Did you do any weight reduction Kreinmc? When I run I plan on just removing spare, jack, and back seats.

I didn't really realize low 13s were possible, I'd be content with a 13.3-13.4, maybe gears won't be nesscary for what I want.

12.80s when the car was a 6 speed bolt on car. No weight reductions, cold air, flp headers, open borla, 1.6 rockers, spec clutch, moser 4.11 12 bolt, 160 stat, lt1 edit, bmr subframe, control arms, pan bar and tork arm, drag radials, cold day stickey track.

Car today has 383 auto, no ac, ps, emissions, etc. Detuned and added a little weight to run 12.00 My local track changed the rules for this season and the class can now run down to 11.50. Soooo the car will be running 11.50 this year
