Just to get an idea, anyone here hit 12s without a slick or a drag radial? Id like to have a bolt on car that can hit 12's with an ordinary performance tires.

I couldn't manage better than a 13.2 @109 with a 2.2 60' on sumitomo's. And that was with the an M6 formula that put down 365rwhp and 373ftlbs. I was chasing down drag radial cars left and right at the end, I just couldn't get off the line with the Sumi's.

It will take a lid,LT,off road y-pipe,cat back,P&P TB,free mod's,underdrive pulley and good street tire's.My SS went a low 13.36 A4 in stock trim and then w/ a P& P TB and a Hypertech hand tuner went 12.87.

From the research I've done it only takes a lid, catback and LS6 intake to hit very high 12's. Mid 12's can be acheived with that plus long tubes, off-road y-pipe, and dyno tune. And then I've seen a few kinda low 12's like 12.3-12.4 with everything above and underdrive pulley, cut out, ram air of some kind like SSRA or FTRA, and 4.10 gears. I would contemplate that consistant low 12's would need DR's.

Hit a 12.9 @112 with a 2.1 60 foot. That was on stock wheels and stock 245 size tires. That was a couple of years ago, before my cam and other things, basically had just headers and true duals. I'm also a six speed with stock 3.42 gears. I had to baby it off the line, like leaving a stop sign, and still spun. True street tires have more grip on the street, than on the track.

I can understand why too. Well, a ram air system either from fast toys or any other company is good for a tenth or so, then you have the typical bolt ons with that (catback, long tubes, lid and a tune) along with a DR, this set up, or a similar one can get you into the 12's no problems, correct?

No, not on street tire's .I run M/T ET Street Radial's on the street. I had a 98 Z-28 A4 W/a no cat's and a lid on bald nitto's and ran 13.1 @106 so it's not hard w/ a few mod's.
