No problem at all. With bolt ons a 150 shot I was running 11.3-11.4 in full street trim. Went high 10.90s after I did some weight reduction and suspension mods.
If you want to do it N/A, make sure you do your homework when it comes to converter selection.

I've never made an N/A pass with the car. I imagine it would run around 11.7-11.9 with the nitrous tune. I run an MS3 cam and the converter is a Midwest 3500 with a 2.5 str. N/A out of the hole the converter really doesn't hit hard enough, I would like a 3.0 str. I imagine if your looking to stay N/A only you'd want to look into 4K+ stalls.

i studied gmmuscle's setup (although pretty simple) and came out with a pretty good running SI 2.73 car .
n/a it usually runs 12.1-12.3 @ 109-110. in good air it went 12.0 but it really doesn't launch hard enough to get an 11 on motor. maybe with a bigger stall it would've- im changing the setup over the winter though so guess i'll never know.
3500 raceweight, sfc's, panhard bar, some weight off of the front end (battery/swaybar/support/ac). otherwise stock suspension. no skinnies or anything crazy. check the vid
