Smile Made it in the 12s finally.

Ran a 12.8 at 108mph. Also ran a 12.4 at 108 with a dry 100shot but it only kicked in in 1st gear. Couldnt figure out why and when it did hit the motor started running real lean. Car did dyno 331hp 346tq and 480hp 501tq on the 100 shot, if I recall correctly. Wondering if I may have an 11 second pass in it if the nitrous was working properly.

Car is a 2000 T/A with a lid, lt headers, true duals dumped before the axle, tune, 3600 stall and yokohoma s drive tires.

Good time, I don't understand how I am running 12.56@111 without a stall? Everyone I see with a stall and similar mods are running around my time or a bit slower, no offense. It's just weird. I have the same mods as you but with no stall.

You have the stock gearing? I maybe could hit 12.5 with some et streets but the tires I have now I'm only launching at 1600rpms. And thats a strong mph, my car seems to die off around 90.

3.23 gears and a 275-40-17 yokohama street tire. ET Streets will help you alot, you will be able to bring your R's up and not worry about spinning hopefully.

Get rear control arms, they helped me with wheel hop and such.

LOL, I am just worried my trans won't hold up. Also can't make up my mind between a SS3600 or a PT4000 from Yank.
