Put some drag radials on it. With a good 60ft you should be able to go high 12's.

Mid twelves with sticky tires if full weight, low twelves with some weight removed.

12.999 may be possible with perfect weather and the perfect launch.
Your rearend will probably break if you launch the way you need to.

I ran 13.08 @ 108 with just CAI, Catback, tune, and DRs in good weather. He has headers and gears on top of that. With a decent 60ft it should go 12s.

Yea he has headers, I didn't. He has gears, I didn't. All he needs to add is drag radials and it should go 12's no problem.

i would think you should be in the 12s unless your spinning half way down the track...

i ran a 13.7 with just a K&N and a magnaflow catback... (before any other mods i have listed)... but if you can drive it or not with a 6 speed also effects it a LOT!

You clearly didn't get what I said.

You listed an intake, he didn't.
You listed a catback, he didn't.
You listed a tune, he didn't
You listed Drag Radials, he didn't.

Those 4 things could make QUITE a difference.

Gears and headers can do wonders as well, but without DRs they are worthless. And not every car will perform like yours. Not everybody has the same elevation, same weather, same DA. There are way too many variables and with ONLY the mods in his sig, he will NOT hit 12s.
