Help me shave off 4 tenths so I can run 12.000!

currently with my setup I ran a 12.488 @ 113
Mods are:
K&N cold air
mac crank pulley
tb bypass
taylor OVC wires
jacobs coil
autolite 104s
mac headers and y
custom 3" catback with cutout
100 NX shot

the reason I only want to shave 4 or so tenths is becuase I dont want to install a roll cage.

I'd put a 160* in your car, the cooler it is, the better it runs. Have you thought about any suspension mods? Do a couple of those, and you could be running the time you want.

LCAs and Subframe connectors cant hurt thats for sure, and the loss of weight obviously wont hurt you. I dunno if you thought of gears? i dunno what shifter you have but that can make a difference like Stock vs. Pro 5.0

If you insist on being easier on your rear you're just gonna have to jet up .

Cut a good 60' and you're in the 11's.

Running that high of a MPH with the stock cam you probably dont want to do gears, you are gunna run out of RPM in 4th gear and have to hit 5th.

12 bolt/9" tell me how you are leaving in it now?If you could pull a 1.7X I think that would get you were you want to be. or swap the M6 for a A4 and not worroy about the rear. I am beating on my 10 bolt pretty hard with 1.605 60ft times.. man that fells so good with a 3.23 gear
