Can I hit high 12's with my setup?
The only thing I've added this year is a Spohn TA. My car before the TA is consistant 13.30's @ 104+ mph running on DR's, weight reduction in the trunk area, ditching the frt bar and all related pieces. The best et is a 13.23@104.88mph. I would only hook like a 2.0 before (had a couple of 1.98 60's)
Engine mods are in the sig. Car dynos 305hp, 320 torque @ the wheels. Stock cam, stock heads, stk dual cats, stk intake, stk gear (3.42:1), all emissions equipment functional. Is it possible with the TA I can get a high 12 out of my setup?

I think you could get close if you were still running on the DR's but I don't think you can get into the 12's. I bet the stock cats are hurting you why dont you put some high flow cats on? Also do you have an upgraded y-pipe?

My car has the stk dual cats so I don't really have a y-pipe like the single cat guys. Yeah compared to a dual cat high flow setup my stocker's probably costing me a bit but not as much as you think, for a factory piece the stock dual cats on a 96-97 car doesn't flow too bad. Compared to the $$$$ I would have to spend on a high flow cat setup the improvement I would see would be mininal at best.
My car just doesn't hook well whether it's with DR's or street tires before with my stk. suspension and TA (I do have a few urethane pieces like panhard rod bushings, TA bushing etc.). When I got that 13.23 et I hooked the 1.98 60 which to me is still a 2.0 basically. Most guys with DR's can usually hook like a 1.7-1.8 that's why I'm thinking that with the TA I might get it into the 12's and with my setup that would be quite a feat IMO.

Anything is possible, try finessing it off the line, shift quick, and leave about 42psi of air in the front tires. I got 12's, stock head/cam/gears, etc. You can do it man! Good luck!
...but I did have SLP int. headers/ypipe & new clutch, plus afpr, Granatelli custom MAF sensor, SLP CAI, 1LE elbow, hypertech programmer & 160 stat, LCA's/Panhard, Poly rear, Comp Engineering Drag Shocks, Airbag in right rear, BFG Drags & a gutted cat, which probably helped over your dual cat setup. Good luck dude!
