Default will I run 12's

I have a 99 TA that I have put pacesetter long tubes and y-pipe on
373 gears, I have ported the TB and have an air lid with smooth bellow. I installed a transgo shift with a stock tranny and converter.
I am looking for a tune but being in stationed Alaska it is kinds hard at time to find anything.
I am currently deployed to Afghanistan and will make it to the track in September to see what I will run.

Nice Talking with you all Robert

You will have a chance with cooler weather. A tune would help a bunch.

A great big thank you for what you do for this country. Be safe & Good luck.

I noticed that you didn't mention a catback or tires. I'd say depending on air you will be close. If your catback is stock take it off for the runs or upgrade, with some DR's you'll probably get there. Keep safe over there.

Im going to start off and say Thanks for your service! I was in Iraq in 06 and got out of the army in 07. And, I think 12's are very possible... a tune and DR's would help. I have 2.73's gears and not much done and I run 13.0 @ 108
