Thanks ssfiress:
I install the ASP Pulley last week and i felt the diference.
The times in the sing was without the pulley.
I want to keep out of the motor until i get the best times with just only bolt ons with naturally aspired motor..
My next step going to be 8.8 rear and a set of 26 X 10 slicks to see if i can go deep in the 1.7 or 1.6s 60 foot.
You tnink is posible to hit higth 11s with just bolt ons?

That's a lot of money for not going into the motor yet.
I'd :
1) Fix traction issues. Check your LCA angle. The arms shoud be parallel to ground if not uplsoped to front of car. Change to aftermarket or buy relocation brackets. Pull the front swaybar at track. Run at least a stiffer torque arm
2) Then go for a cam/valve springs. Not a hard swap really and
best bang for the hp

Maybe that was a bit presumptuous about your traction, but I would have thought you could 1.8s in the 60'... guess it depends how hard you are launching, whether you are getting any wheelhop.
Just look at your lower control arms on a flat surface compared to the ground. My car isn't lowered and they point slightly down to the front, which is the wrong way...
I've heard good things about Jantzer's throttle body, not sure if it's worth it until you have a cam...

Are you heating your Nittos up? I pulled consistent 1.8s with my Nittos and very similar mods that you have (didn't have my headers, torque arm or ported TB last time I raced). Make sure you at least heat the Nittos up for a couple of seconds, then launch at somewhere around 2.2k-2.5k rpms. That's what I did and it seemed to work...

If i install a Hal shocks setup better tires like goodgear 28x10 slicks with a set of weld raing rims and maybe K member maybe it can be aout 150lbs less out of my car,is realistic 1.6s 60' and some 12.3s to 12.0???
Or i need more power mods?

How about rear suspension stuff that help you hook??? I see none in your sig.. maybe a torque arm? is your car lowered? then relocation brackets..
