Default Will these mod's put me in the 11's?

My current times are in my sig. If I put in a 12-bolt or 9" w/ 4.10s or 4.30s and put my DR's back on, really heat them, and launch a lot higher can I see 11's. I think that I have the trap for 11's. What do you think?

Ditch the flowmaster or get a cutout for the track, change you sig from fast boys ram air to fast toys ram air (unless it really is boys, but the one I know about is toys ) and give it a shot.

You're looking for over four tenths and you were already pulling 1.90 60's, so I see low 12's as the most likely outcome.

1.90's are terrible. That was coming out between 2200-2500 with no burnout. Like I said if I really heat them and come out at 4500-5000 w/ the new rear, I can probably pull 1.70s or even lower. Don't they say every tenth saved in the 60-ft translates to 1.5 tenths ET. So .2 x 1.5 = .3 seconds. So that's 12.1 without the gears. With gears, I'm in the 11's.

That's what they say, but that's not how it worked for me. I had identical mph with 0.3 drop in the 60' by removing the front sway bar and switching tires. I dropped the same 0.3 in the 1/4 as the 60'.

The three tenths rule is pretty well known and trusted however. If you were able to pull 1.70's, which I think you could, using that rule you could run 11's. I ran 1.72-1.75 with 3500 stall, ET streets, !FSB, full exhuast and a lid in a 98.

Gears? Yeah, I was forgetting about the gears, just concentrating on the harder launch possible with a stronger rear...you might make it.

Get out there and find out.

i've always went by .1 in the 60ft = .2 in the 1/4 mile, which DEFINETLY worked out for me. 1.85 60ft was a 12.80- 12.89's, 1.80 60ft was a 12.72, same mph and basically the same temperature, track, and setup. there are alot of factors, but i think you have a shot if you can DRIVE..
