Default How quick with normal bolt ons?

What kind of times can you expect with the normal bolt ons such as intake/exhaust/headers...

Talking like mid 13's?

See my sig below. With some stickier tires I'd be pretty close to high 12's. I believe mid 12's are possible N/A without opening up the motor. I'll be adding the crawford plenum, TS ECU, 350evo Throttle Body, JWT flywheel and clutch within the next month. That setup should get me solidly into the high 12's if I can get traction. Next yr I'll be adding the 350evo gears, lighter wheels and sticker tires and I should be in the mid 12's.

concur..

plus changing the final drive as long as you get traction/hookup you should have a go at hitting 12's

If you change the final drive you will def have to shift to fifth. That's not a plus. I am doing 6100 RPM in 4th through the lights. 3 shifts is enough for me.

Thanks! No dyno yet. I'll dyno after the plenum, TB and ECU go in. I'm not really concerned about HP numbers, I'll be dynoing just to verify that TS worked their magic on my A/F ratio

Sub 14 second times are very realistic and getting into the twelves (n/a) would be sooo sweet! The bone stock Track model that Car & Driver tested last year ran the quarter in 13.8.
