Those headers are a bit big but on smaller headers m6 cars put down 340-350 with a tune. If you can keep your 60's down in 2.0 range you will have no problem with 12.9 12.8's. Since your in Hawaii humidity and heat will probably take away some speed, and practice launching on the street, spinning tires will land you in the mid 13's.

best way to launch on the street? 2500 dump? my "***" liked to jump a foot to the left on all stock 3000rpm dumps* haven't dumped the clutch with mods yet my idle is set to 1200rpm currently.

!There are hoardes of turbo/na primered/riced out 240sx's integras and civics here, More rice then Uncle Ben's basement I wanna get my ride on a ferry to maui raceway but I've never tracked my car and I'm honestly afraid of detonating my rear and/or clutch on the first run and don't have the money for replacement/upgrade. anyway sorry for the rant This forum is terrific thank you Fbody brothers for your support and information!

Those laws are everywhere just have to be "smart" about how you go do it, when you race anything it's when not if something brakes. You bought the car for a reason use it damnit. Do tell about your court case.

everywhere ? daaamn! the 30 over only got approved in the last 2 years or so. as far as court went I got off light the cop didn't show *they rarely do* and I got a $100 fine for "acceleration/exhibition of speed". I was quite pleased with the result it could have been much worse. I've been taking it easy lately on the streets.
