Default What Should I Expect Next?

My best slip from the track:

Reaction: .612
60 ft: 2.154
330 ft: 5.748
1/8 ET: 8.710 @ 88.56mph
1000': 11.199
1/4: 13.321 @ 106.64mph

I am saving now for Kook's Stainless LT's, and their Y Pipe with Magnaflow Cats. With the new Long Tubes and Y Pipe along with the few other mods I have plus dyno tuning, what could I expect next time at the track. Also, will my Comp T/A's handle the added power, or will I need Drag Radials to see 12's.
Thanks Guys-

seems to me like you could just practice your launches and get that 60' down, 13.3 seems a bit high for your mods... maybe its just me tho

You should see a mid/high 12 with Drs,with street tires who knows.My car only gets 85 MPH in the 1/8 at around 8.0X and runs mid twelves at 111-112.I can net low 1.8s in the 60 with DRs.Once you get nittos,you wont buy any other tire for the rear.

I think you're doing fine for where you're at. With the headers, car should go in the 12's..
