Default Lets play what ET/MPH with my car....2008C6Z

So lets play what if i do this mod what will the end result be! For example we will say with "X" mod(s) will be able to reach "XX.XX" et at "XXX.XX" MPH. We will say standard weather good weather at say +500DA on a pretty good prepped track. Not saying optimul pass but realistic is what i'm looking for. Not legendary Gary/Robz/Stonebonez ET's here. Just going through some hypothetical situations/modifications and my fellow forum member thoughts on these.What mods do we think we should do next? Keeping warranty friendly if we can and cost LOW! No nitrous,no supercharger,turbo chargers.

So stock 2008 C6Z06 2LZ(navi,pwr/heated seats,etc)
So say my average is 11.10 at 126.50mph on a BFG drag radial on 18inC5Z06 rims
( no i have no achieved this but i'm going to work very hard on a goal of 10.9x's in great weather,great track prep -500DA or better)
Baseline on DR.
11.10@126.00 with 1.700 60ft

10.95@127.00mph w/1.65 60ft with CCW drag pack 18in front,16rear ET street 26x11.5x16 rear (rear brakes converted to C5Z06) I'm doing this for several reasons. (weight, tire selection,gear ratio reduction via tire, i'm most likely going to try to pick up a set of hoosier radials for these 255/50/16s to reduce rolling resistance,weight and tire height will remain the same through the entire quartermile unlike the bias ply reducting my gear ratio effectiveness with my 3.42s as my only option).

10.80@129.00mph w/1.65 60ft with CCW dragpack mentioned,ARH 1 3/4 headers,offroad xpipe,Stainless works catback 3in. This will reduce weight and increase power (may see how the car acts w/o tuning if possible, i know the gains will not be as great w/o tune and it may not even run well w/o tune I guess i'll find that out.

10.75@130.50mph w/1.65 60ft CCW dragpack,ARH 1 3/4header,xpipe,stainless works catback 3in, Vararam intake or Vette-air

10.70@131mph w/1.65 60ft CCW dragpack,ARH 1 3/4,xpipe,stainless works catback 3in, Vararam or vette air, electric waterpump w/katech tensioner for looks lol!

10.65@131mph w/1.65 60ft CCW dragpack ARH 1 3/4header,xpipe,stainless works catback 3in, vararam or vette air,elec waterpump, weight reduction (!pass seat,!front sway bar,!floor mats,!alum front rotors,!spare tire J/K)

I'm sure a tune will end up being necessary despite me not wanting that till i have to due to warranty. If the tune is introduced i'm saying that the car will drop .10 and pick up 1mph on the above guesstimates for a average.

Now introduce tune, great weather, great track prep, great driving with above mods

10.49@134.50mph with 1.60ft

A clutch may be needed and im pretty set on the RPS twin street lite possibly billetPP version. Trying to keep cost down and picking up alot of this stuff 2nd hand. Still debating on 1 7/8 headers vs 1 3/4 and some other odds and ends. Let me know what you girls think. This is all hypothetical just have fun no useless info please and try to base your opinion on fact not fiction!

Then lets go crazy go LSXR intake, TB, track rentals the great great weather, MIR track prepped day with the fast crews and can we see 10.39's at 136mph???
