Default ET possibilities? What'll it do?

My Z28, roughly 3000lb race weight (dedicated track car)

"Stock shortblock", arp rod bolts/main studs
opened up ring gaps
TU1 turbo cam
LS6 intake-60# injectors aftermarket rails
LS9 head gaskets
317 heads
76mm turbo-t4 a2w intercooled
a1000 pump/regulator=3 gallon fuel cell
Race Gas AND Methanol
as much boost as it can make (before maxxing injectors or turbo)
Max Effort tune.
Full suspension front and rear

I'd like to think it can go 9.99 with the stock stuff. The DA around here is almost down to zero, it was 150 last week.

I have a used TC76 .96 A/R for sale when you're ready for a different turbo. Stock bottom end builds are all about the tune. They either pop ring lands or run forever lol. Max effort tune and stock bottom end =

I guess I should rephrase "max effort" I meant it as in just for drag racing. Still safe as far as timing and fueling go. Im pretty sure I'll be stuck at around 650hp with a stock bottom end with rod bolts
