probably high 13s. trans am and formula would run the same, since a trans am is just a formula with a spoiler, ground effects, and more standard options. if anything, a formula would have a slight edge over a trans am since it weighs a little bit less. not enough of a difference that you would be able to notice though.
I think she's got about 2-3 tenths more I can squeeze out of it.

I have a stock 99 A4 Formula with 3.23 gearing and I raced a 98-02 M6 Trans Am WS6 from a roll, he had the jump, and we were pretty much dead even until 120+mph, when he started to very slowly walk away. Hope this helps your understanding in how close the Formula, Trans Am and WS6 are in performance. It all pretty much comes down to body style preference.
