i know what this cars would run first hand. 
and no, is not low 14's to high 13's, but it would go from high 12's to mid 13's depending on driver/track conditions.

My best trap wast 102.5, my buddies was 99.0 and the other guy could only manage 97 mph out of his.

There's a guy who races at the track i go to with an 06 blue GTO. He said he ran 13.1 @ 107 Stock. His car's in the workshop now getting a procharger on it. We'll see what he runs with That on it. He's hoping for mid to low 12's with a conservative tune. We'll see.

Obviously the LS2 does not like heat (Like the 03 Cobras). When they are cool they can run a heckuva lot stronger.I ran my buddies stock GTO and murdered him outta the hole, won by 4 car lengths. When we raced from a roll (After we had both cars sitting for over an hour) I barely beat him by a car and a half. I ran a 13.1 sec. @ 109mph in my car at 2000 ft. DA (Before gears), so I don't see them as a 12 sec. car. They definitely have power up top though, and i've heard are seriously detuned from the factory programming wise.

My brother has made several passes in his car with a best of 13.8 @ 104. His 60ft was a 2.3. It was wheel hopping like crazy. It was also 95 degrees outside in the sweltering heat/humidity of Louisiana.

Meaning 8 out of 10 you see at th strip will run 13.5's.
Not hating, just keeping it real. I have seen gobs of them run. Seen one 12.9 with intake and cat backs, but he had DR's on.

I have a 2005 with just DR's and i ran 12.7 at 109, when it was 68 degrees out. This is what my time slip looks like.
R/T .... .286
60' ..... 1.932
330......5.410
1/8......8.248
MPH....86.86
1000...10.680
1/4.....12.740
MPH....109.83
The next run was backed up with a 12.8 @108. This was done at Atco on video, but i cannot upload.
