I gotta call

2.73's, stock stall, street tires and shorty headers = mid 13's. My buddy with a 98 Formula had 2.73 gears, LT's, lid, cutout, TCI 3000 stall and M/T street radials and could only manage 12.9 @ 107. But his car did have a N20 tune so it was probably a 12.7 @ 108 car under a normal NA tune.

Same motor, same tranny, same gears, same weight, ect. We all know some dyno more then others. But not enough to make a car on street tires, 2.73 gears, stock stall and shorty headers run in the 12's. He couldn't get the traction for twelves

DA plays a pretty large factor boys...

Some guys are lucky enough to live near a track that sees awesome air. Others are SOL.

3000 stall + 2.73's = unimpressive 60'. He wasn't slow for what he had. He just had a bad setup (crappy gears, crappy stall, ls1 intake, ect).
