What will I run

I have a 97 Formula 6speed w/ 3.42 gears. It has mildly ported heads a comp xe 224/230 112LSA cam, Jet-Hot LT headers, K&N CAI, 85MM MAF, Port matched intake and full exhaust with a cutout. What does everybody think I'll be in the range of with decent traction. Car went 13.9 @ 104.4 basically stock with a crappy 2.3 60'

with traction, i would say at least mid 12s. low 12s are definatly within reach.

good luck!

I'm surprised Trey didn't tell you how he thinks you can hit under 12s....

You have a ton of speed work, and no suspension from what I can tell. You need traction and cut down that 60'? Get some suspension stuff and that'll cut down a ton!

11's will be rough, especailly with a 6spd

hooking on a 6spd is hard


12.2-12.6 is my guess
