it could be true- gears, headers, the right supporting mods and some DRs and you might be surprised

He's not necessarily on the juice. That is definately bolt on territory, especially if he is an A4 with a stall

Look at my sig. 12.4 @ 108 on stock internals and no N20. Plus I have no weight reduction, no LS6 intake, no underdrive pulley and my stall isn't the most effiecient (I could probably improve my times with a Yank SS3600).

Add all that to my car and I'm probably pushing 11.9's. So it is possible but do not dismiss the possibility that he could be full of crap

Definitely possible. Check my sig on worn DR's. I haven't ran the car on my slicks yet. He might be BS'ing, but the possibility is definitely there.

I would ask what does he consider stock, people used the term stock loosely, I know here in Texas my car stock from the factory it ran 13.8, I have read people in other states running faster than this from the factory, just depends on conditions...

Absoultely possible, a decent cam, bolt ons and a stall or good shifing will get you there. There is a guy in the 11's on all stock internals, bolt ons, and weight reduction here in a 6speed.

The point here was that he didn't have a cam.
