Default 99 Trans Am A4 in the 12's on first run

I have a 99 Trans Am A4 with kn air filter, SLP lid, LS6 intake, pacesetter headers, 4" y-pipe through a 4" mufflex exhaust, Torquer 2 cam, SS3600 yank stall converter, and some ET streets on stock rims. Oh yeah stock suspension and gears, 3:73's not installed yet.

1/4: 12.6 @ 108
I've been looking around and my mile an hour seems low for the time that I run, does anyone know why?

Yeah you should definitely be faster. I ran .1 and 1 mph slower in my old Z28 with a smaller converter, no headers, and no cam. 3.23 gears. Same 60' time as you.

are you tuned for the cam?

You mph seems alittle low, but stock gears are hurting you.

You seem to have got a good short time, but you do seem to be falling off on the big end. I agree with slowmofo: may have to do with the tune.

Definitely need to get those 3:73 gears in and proper tuning so you can see better results!
