I would say I picked up a solid 3 tenths and with some tuning(car shifts at 5700 right now)with the stock tuning a 12.3 is possible

btw, i'm not saying you have bad times. i'm very impressed that you're running mid-12's with the stock heads. comparing to your bolt-on time, i expected more of a gain. sounds like a sweet ride though!
