The car is a 99 TA , with a m6 and flow master cat back and a zex kit. (junk) I was realy thinken of building a 408 for this car , but i think i will just use my cash that i saved for the motor and get GT500. OH yea the tire is 295/30/18 toyo tr1
so its basically stock, how bad are you spinning and what are you launching at. but before you do anything you really need a lid, headers, a tune , and probably a better catback.

^^^That's what I was gonna say, lol. I had a bone stock 02 WS6 M6 and after learning to launch it ran consistant 13.5s with a 2.0 60ft. I find it funny that most people who complain about their times don't show their 60ft times. I guessing going to the GT500, he'll have the same problems.
IMO, if you want an M6 that performs well and consistently at the strip you are going to need some different tires. You don't have enough sidewall with 18" wheels to get traction and reduce your 60' times especially if your hitting the bottle right off the line. I picked up nearly a second on the big end just by running some bias-ply tires on a 15" wheel and dropping my 60' times.
