I would say high 11's would be reachable, but not low 11's. Do you have any suspension work done?

no i dont. what would i need to make low 11s

Alot of suspension work and some heads. Suspension work like torque arm, lower control arms, subframe connectors, adjustable shocks, new rear swaybar, and getting rid of the front swaybar. Thats should help out alot. You can have that good cam and n20 but you have to be able to transfer that power to the track. Suspension work is one of the most important things I think. Also that cam is not the best for n20.

thanks

Yeah I am not saying that the cam is not good, I am saying it is not the best cam for nitrous. It is a def improvement from stock. Lower control arms will help alot too and they are only around 100 to 170 dollars. I personally like UMI and Spohn the best as far as suppliers. If you are planning on getting a after market rear you might wanna go ahead and get all adjustable suspension parts, that will make things alot easier on yourself later.

your going to be having to cut some nice 0-60 foot times to get anywhere near what you want, and on the stock 10 bolt you will be sitting on a bomb lol. If you take it easy on it and go for the MPH you can guage how quick your car will be ET with some good 0-60 foot times without grenading your rear end.

i went to the track the other day and my best of 2 runs was a 12.4 at 116. with a 2.0 60ft.

and i only spryed a 75 shot and im with stock gears right now....also the clutch was slipping. lol

i still think i can make it low 11s with a 150 shot

Like mentioned, you're going to be limited by your 60' time. You're making the power to run 10s. You're going to need to be in the 1.5 60' range to do it. Build the suspension and be ready to replace the 10 bolt.

10's is pushing it..mid 11's maybe with a full 150 shot. I'm willing to bet that my Engine setup is making more power than his on a 150 shot, and I got the time in my Sig as the best time so far for me in the 1/4. I'm not trying to talk the guy down, but I don't see that stock-cube LS1 with that small of a Cam going that fast.

I don't understand why no one has faith in this car going low 11's. I ran 11.30 @120 with a 150 dry shot, and all I had was a lid, headers/catback, and 3.73's. And that was on a 245 16in Nitto. 1.5 60'. In the perfect conditions low 11's is for sure possible. He even proved it, he went 116mph on a 75 shot. He just needs to make a perfect pass. 120mph is low 11/ high 10 territory.

Just my $0.02

ok i went back to the track with some et streets and got a 1.7 60ft with a 75 shot and missing the hell out of 3rd gear and went a 12.1 @ 115. i just need to get it tuned and change the jets to a 150 shot and see what it will do.

and i ran those numbers with stock gears. 411s would help alot..

thats good to hear. i have the same stuff, 150 goin on for next pass, i also have an ls6 intake and 4000 stall. Your car should be atleast good to mid 11's i would think. def get some suspension work like mentioned above. You might wanna look into a t/a girdle for a little support for that rearend. its not going to like that 150 shot with 4.11 out of the hole. good luck though.

Pushing it? I ran 11.07 with stock internals and that was launching on motor and then activating the nitrous 50' or so into the run because I couldn't get it to hook spraying it out of the hole.

svtwhat?

+1

my brothers 99 went 11.47 on a 150 shot. only mods were longtubes and exhaust. still had a ls1 intake, and 3.42 gears, on a 255 drag radial. no suspension except for crappy sportline springs
