When you say exhaust, do you mean catback only or full exhaust (LT's/Y/Catback)?

nice runs, mine does very similar, 12.60's at 110 with same mods and 2.73's. Fun to have a "stock" car that runs mid 12's

Used or new?

New you need to put a few more miles on them 300-500 should be enough.

Used you can get away with a bit less I put 135 plus the 50miles to the track on her.

Do you have a tune yet?

And do you have the SLP LM1 or the SLP LM2? Either way, that's gotta be pretty loud with headers on it...

Not bad for no tune then. You may be running pretty lean though. What kind of MPG's are you averaging?

If you have a muffler, I'm guessing you have the LM2. It's the quieter cat-back, the LM1 has a resonator, looks just like a muffler, but it's completely hollow, which is why it's so loud.

i have a innovate wide band in the car ..and A/F is a little off at WOT it's shows , 12.2 should be 12.8-13.0 ( alittle rich) so not to far off cruising at 70mph on the highway A/F is 14.7 , car gets an average 26 mpg
