Default Fastest bolt on w/out headers with or without nitrous???

I was wondering what would be the time to beat?

I was thinking of trying to put my car in the 10's with manifolds. I am gunna add a ram air hood(maybe good for a .1),up the nitrous jets to a 150 shot,ls1 edit tuning, a pulley, a ls6 intake, a ported tb, upgrade to a tcs conveter, and some suspension stuff and I beleive some 10 second time slips shouldn't be hard at all.... well considering what my car has already ran on a 100 shot.


What ya think guys???

Hey Guy, its much easier to go from 12.50 to 12.0 then it is to go from 11.5 to 11.0. I don't think you will be able to do it with a 150 shot unless you really lighten the car up. Just some info for you though, I know of a drag radial car with a dry kit dual stage, 3.73 gear, and subframe connectors, no torque converter, that went 10.6.

A lot will depend on your 60'. What short times are you cutting now? If your at 1.7 and you get down to 1.4's there you have a shot IMO.

My car went 12.07 @ 111.42 (1.62)
That was with less than 7000 miles on the OD

I've seen a few different cars run 11.9's with that combo N/A.

Spray it out of the hole.. if it hooks, and nothing breaks.. it will go deep.

what kind of elevation are you running at?
up the nitrous jets to a 150 shot,ls1 edit tuning, a pulley, a ls6 intake, a ported tb, upgrade to a tcs conveter, and some suspension stuff and I beleive some 10 second time slips shouldn't be hard at all....
with the added performance with some good DA I think it is possible

i ran 11.54 @ 116mph w/ 1.58 60ft. with:

SLP Loudmouth
MTI Lid
Vig3200
TNT 100 shot

Still had stock cats on the car(36,000 miles) and weighed in at about 3500lbs with me in the car. Only had the backseat out, but had two bottles mounted in the car in the Aerospace Components bracket. Stock 16" chrome wheels all the way around with 26x10.5x16 e.t. streets(3.23 stock rear)

With the addition of ASP Pulley, LS6 intake, Ported TB, LCA's and relocation brackets, Hal/QA1's, and a 150 shot and fuel pump, i'm sure that it would have been no prob on that same day. Especially with some skinnies/slicks and with some more weight reduction.
