What kind of tires and suspension setup do you have? If you hook youll be somewhere in the 12s I would guess. Kinda hard without more info. Low 12s.....high 11s on slicks???

You're gonna need more suspension work than that to hook.

But I can see you in the high 11s with traction. Not too bad at all really.

I agree, you'll need more suspension work. HOWEVER, there are people cutting 1.6's with stock suspension but i recommend getting AT LEAST some LCA's and Re-location brackets as well.
If lowered, then also a PHR..
