My 01 ws6 six speed went 12.8 @110 with just a lid {at -100 ft}and alot of people say it was fast so i guess you are doing very good.

With a filter and the free mods you should run 12.7@108.
Good luck <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

the car is kinda like wine she improves with age

with 5k on the clock she ran a 13.8 in good weather

with about 12k in 90+ degree weather 13.60's

at 22K added the lid and put my 26x11.5-16 ET streets on the car and ran a 13.08 @ 105

last runs made with 25K put the street tires on and ran the 12.98 @ 107

I have been nothing but impressed with the way this car has performed.

It is my wifes daily driver so there are no big plans out of the car. Just Hooker long tubes, Corsa catback, and suspension goodies. As drivabilty is the main concern we are planning on leaving the stock gears and stall.
