Default converter only guys !!!!

Hey Guys,
I have a 2002 SS that I've only ran about 16 times last season and I ran mostly 13.2's and 13.1's bone stock. My question is ....what is the average E.T. <img border="0" alt="[driving]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_driving3.gif" /> you guys have ran with just converter and tire ( nitto's, bfg's or et streets) ? I'm looking at 3200-3400 Vigilante. I plan on keeping the stock gears and maybe a set of SLP LT's later on down the road. Thanks in advances <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

My friend runs 12.5s w/ a 3200 vig and a few bolt ons. Id look into a Yank or even a TCS. I am going to get a TCS. The vigs arent very efficent, so they dont MPH like the yanks and TCS. plus TCS has a 3 year warrenty. Call them and ask for Derek.

i averaged 13.1-13.2 before my stall and headers..


dropped a 2800 stall in and went 12.8 in hot weather


yanked that yank out and dropped a vig3600 and headers in and went 12.2's in warm weather... in cool air i went 11.95@112 in this heavy car on nittos with a 1.58 60


with a vig3200-3600 and no headers Id bet you would be in the 12.2-12.4 range... drop in headers and drop a few tenths off that
