You got 320RWHP out of that set-up? very nice, not thats its WAAAYY out there, but higher than id expect. At 320 at the tires, id say a mid 12 is possible

Wow mid 12's I am stoked! My car will back from shop soon from having a few things done hehehe and I will be going racing. If I can get in the late 12's I will be so happy as this is my everyday street car.
F8tlByte, I have not had this car on the dyno yet but I have one of NASVT's Ported and Polished short runner intakes and the 100 octane race tune is custom for my set up. I live in Japan and Premium Pump gas here is 100+ octane so I am guessing with the other mod's she is good for about 320rwhp but I could be wrong but not by much I am sure as I have put countless internet hour's into this car.

Next I will reduce some more weight by rear seat delete,drive shaft,k member and aluminium flywheel when/if my clutch dies.

Low 13's if you are lucky with those tires. 555R's will never get sticky, especially on a cool track. You will fight traction probs all day long.

You sure? They are 315's and pretty sticky.
Yes I am confident. I had 285 Eagle F1 GS-D3's and could never get better than a 13.8. Now with 315 Nitto DR's my best is a 13.1. I am below your power level, but it is all about the first 60' in drag racing. You will have no traction at the track on those tires. You'll have better grip on the street pavement.

yeah i couldnt get traction for $hit when i took mine to the strip this year with the 555Rs im pretty sure i spun half way through 2nd before i really started to get going im a rookie driver (that was the first time at the strip) and i got a 13.95 @ 103 mph made me happy enough to give her a reward.

It can be done, just heat em up like suggested. 12s are cake with your mods.

You can make a nitto hook. Put the psi down to 16 and a good 5-7 sec burnout. Do a quick feather dump and 1.8's all day.

I'm thinking high 12's. The only reason for that is no subframes or Control arms. Good luck though!
