14.1 @ 98mph, ha ha j/k, all out 06 is probably right on, i would venture to say low 13's to high 12's get some dr's and maybe mid 12's, the only way your going to tell is if you get it out to a track

340-350rwhp should be about right and high 12s/low low 13s too. If you are spinning it up to 6k off the line alot or are racing alot then you might want to start saving up for a 12bolt. For the most part they can break at stock power levels, but there are those with 400rwhp that are still on the 10bolt. Just use your judgement. Good luck.

you will have better luck in the dyno thread 340ish is about right
e/t all depends on track cond and driver
e/t all depends on track cond and driver
It also depends on the tires, air density, altitude, ect, ect...
Best I could get out of my stock t/a was 14.16 @ 99mph with a 2.0s 60'.
Spun the tires through 1 and 2nd. didn't catch traction until I was at 45mph.
They say what you gain in the first 60', you can bouble at the top end.. so if you shave off 2/10th in the 60' with drag radials, then you might loose 4/10ths off your overall time... (I have yet to test this theory, but it does seem very reasonable)
Just because most people run LOW 13's and even high 12's in a stock t/a... doesn't meen you will right out of the box. I'm over a second slower thanks to 2900' elevation =\

Sorry he's right...
There are sticky's that answer your question. Which is why they are there, so we don't have 100 of these threads a day.
BTW if you are going to report posts calling names when they are trying to help you might want to try a different sight

Please refrain from posting vulgar statements.
There are stickys at the top of the section, we can NOT tell you what your car will run/what its capable of running.
Find a Dragstrip and see what it will run.
If you have a problem with me removing your statement, please contact me through PM.
Thanks,

If anyone has a problem with me asking advice on here then dont read my thread.There are plenty of people on here who would like to know a ruff estimate of the power they will get and ask on here without people being jerks.So what made my question so much different. You've got some loser who has nothing better to do then to go through Newbie tech looking for someone to take out his frustration on. IF YOU THINK THE QUESTION IS STUPID THEN DONT WASTE YOUR TIME READING IT OR RESPONDING! There were plenty of people who read my thread and just gave and honest answer. I havent taken my car to the track yet and I wont until I have finished the majority of my mods and I am at least somewhat happy with what it runs.
