Street tires? There are to many variables like temp, elevation to be exact. Whats all been done? A good suspension will help along with many other things.

You have the location not listed. This would play a part.

I am in Kentucky and the cars run well here if elevation is what you mean. The car pulls hard if it will get off the line without breaking the rear, it does have a built up 7.5

With those numbers, you should have a low 12 second car. That could always change though and there is only one way to find out.

However... because 400rwhp cars only are turning mid to low 12's at 110 to 113.... you just never know.
The above is supposed to be a joke yet is a sad one since it seems to be the norm these days.

Depends how bad a driver you are. :/

Every yokl thinks THEY can drive... but driving isn't racing... especially with a stick.

To even guess it would help to have more info and there are tons of variables that could put you close to 12 flat to low 13's, depending on any number of factors. My guess is 12.5x's. But then again, I don't normally get the greatest launches off drag radials and an M6, but many others will be able to pull it off just fine.
