You don't need much really. Cutout, lid, and tires should get you there. My wifes car did it with a lid, cutout and a meter. That's it. No drag radials. -Mark

Just look at the signature. There all there with the exception of the Fuddle 3400 torque converter getting dropped in next week. This will help lower 0-60 ft times as well as increase overall performance in the car on street or strip. If I had to do it all over again the Stall would be one of the first mods I would have done. No serious regrets about how i've done it though. Lid, Cold air induction, Bellows and MAf along with Magnaflo (love the sound) came first. Used a hand helt tuner that tied these mods together (Jet performance) Ran very low 13's(13.2-13.3) with this setup. The car litteraly just woke up and became Nasty. Then came the Pacesetter coated LT's with a Catted Y pipe from TSP followed by a tune (professional tune when adding headers and Y pipe a must). Handhelds will only take you so far. Goal is to build a low 12 or high 11 sec car with no cage as this is my daily driver. Tryin to do it with just bolt ons and the plan is working. Good luck! Come join us.
The times listed below occured on a very hot and humid Texas night with no slicks. Everybody was runnin shitty that night. Will be headed back in july to see what it does then. Less humidity I hope.

ive got most bolt ons minus the LS6 intake and then a tune

everyone says with a LS6 intake and a tune, 2-3 tenths will be dropped

DR's 1-2 tenths

but before all the mods- 12.97@ 110 Lid, catback, spec stage 3 clutch and free mods. thats before i learned how to launch it on street tires..

I saw a 2002 WS6 with just a drop in K&N filter run a 12.98 @ 109

You have lid and catback so my next mod would be LT headers and ported TB. I would stick with street tires to preserve your 10 bolt. Even so I could easily see you hitting a 7.9-8.2 eigth mile which would translate to a mid to high 12 second pass. Running in decent weather, hitting a 2.0-2.1 60' and shifting well are the main keys to you running 12's.

Good Luck.
