Default Estimate 1/4 Time? FBO Trans Am?

Its a 2000 Trans Am Ls1 With longtube ceramic coated headers, SLP Cold air intake, Msd wires, NGK iriduim plugs.
Saying it doesnt spin and you dont miss a gear (its manual) what times should it be hitting?

On stock tires you might pull a high 12 or so with a decent launch

Mid 12s? Wonder if I could hit bottom 12s with the mods in my sig with some drag radials... DA is in the negatives sometimes where I live and is usually always in the 500 range.

Sure low 12's are doable, but I was just going a little higher since Nitto dr's aren't the stickiest tires...especially when launching with a manual
