well 1.4's are def possible with enough power and a nice suspension setup. Have you looked around to get a good idea what similar setups are running? there are plenty of them out there

My buddy's H/C car 60's in the low 1.5x range and its a full weight pig weighing in at 3750 with him in it.

1.4's are very obtainable. You just need some power, a good suspension set up, and a tire.

I've pulled 1.57's running SI on a Nitto to an 11.623.

My car should easily see 1.4x's on the bottle with a real DR.

I've seen 1.74's on a true street tire, en route to a 11.95 pass.

you have an auto, which makes life easy, op is a 6 speed car..... 1.4's in a full weight stick car, with bolt ons and a little juice will not be easy at all.

I would imagine it would be quite different than my setup. I noticed the OP was a stick car after my first post, I was just answering the question in the second.
