Default My 98' T/A times and rwhp

This weekend here in Miami at our local 1/8 mile track I ran a 8.497 and 60ft 1.96(on a stock tc). I wanna know if my rwhp #'s are on point for what I'm running and mods? Also would that time be enough for 12's?

You are right on the edge of a 12 second pass. If you were in the 8.3x range I would say its a 12 second run with your trap speed. An 8.4 @ 87 would be a very low 13 second pass from what I've seen/ran when mine was bolt-on only. Time for a stall and some 3.73's! Your times are where they should be for a stock stall A4. You'd be trapping around the 108-110 range.

Bad driver? Low to mid 13's. Good driver? High 12's, on drag radials to give yourself the best chance. If you're still running the stock torque converter, 10-bolt and 3.23, make sure it's all healthy and be prepared to replace carrier bearings often.

With a lid, headers, full exhaust, ls6 intake and 4.10 gears I ran a 12.85 @105mph on street tires. They were 295s, but still my daily street tire.
According to the dyno my rwhp was 280...
