Default Does my car have what it takes to be in the 11's

Or is my car a 12 sec car for now??

Little info. The first time i took my car to the track with the following mods listed below i ran a 13.3 @ 109 with a 2.1 60'

2002 Trans Am M6

Engine
MTI Lid | K&N w/Removed Air Silencer | TB Body By-Pass | Bump Stop Mod
Exhaust
QTP LTs | Custom 3" O/R H Pipe | Flowmaster 1 Chambers
Driveline
Pro 5.0


Then over the winter time i got a cam installed and other goodies. But this time, my stock LS6 clutch was slipping bad. it was to the point where the pedal fell to floor, and the RPMs would jsut jump... I wanted to run, honestly i was hoping to blow the cluthc up, but i didn't
This time i ran a 13.0 @ 116 with a 2.0 60'

2002 Trans Am M6

Engine
TSP Cam: 228/232 .588/.595 110+4 | MTI Lid | K&N w/Removed Air Silencer | P&P TB | TB Body By-Pass | Bump Stop Mod | 160 T-Stat | ASP Pulley
Exhaust
QTP LTs | Custom 3" O/R H Pipe | Flowmaster 1 Chambers
Driveline
Pro 5.0


Now i have not yet taken my car to the track, and since last winter i got myself a new exhasut system, Textralia Z grip clutch, and a home made FTRA and went from stock 16" rims to 17X9 up front and 17X10.5 in the rear with a 315 tire Nitto

HERE IS HOW MY CAR SITS NOW..

Damn, we have almost all the same mods. Wierd. My cams a 228/232 588/595 on a
112 +2. I've got a 90/90 combo though.
I need a clutch really bad.

Back to your original question. Your mph is there. Just need a driver mod.

It looks like you made a tiny bit more power than me.. but mine prolly comes in sooner being that it has +4* advanced on the cam......

What have you ran with your set up?

I would say power is there for sure, but you wont hit 11s unless you launch it. 116 mph is good but you will probably need a mid 1.6x 60' to do it.

I was thinking along the same lines as you were. But we will see once it gets a little cooler out

I think it will be hard to get the nittos to hook for 11's. My old camaro would roast nittos when it was bone stock.

I ran 11.9 at 118 with 400/380. But that was also with a 12 bolt and ET streets. A buddy of mine ran 11.86 at 120 with 415/400 on a stock 10 bolt. But I wouldnt try it if I were you. Hell I broke mine trying.

On my stock clutch and stock rear i currently trap 118-119 mph in the 1/4. Basically i need a low-mid 1.8 60' time (and decent shifts) in order to get 11.9x, which i have done only a small handful of times. Like you, i also must keep in mind that if i launch too hard, my car will be getting towed home. Most of my 60's are upper 1.8 - low 1.9 which nets me about 12.0-12.1 ET. I hope you break into the 11's that would be awesome, but being that you are a 6 speed with stock rear and nittos i think you will only see low 12's. Good luck!

You won't make 11's if your on street tires.
