I would say that 6.5 to 6.7 in the 1/8 at around 103 to 105 sounds about right for that hp.

an honest 650hp at the wheels would get you close, but your raceweight is going to hold you back a few numbers.
dont know the whole setup, would guess 6.2-30's.

My car was making around 700 RWHP on my last time out. The car was hooking good (1.39 60') and the best I ran was a 6.03 @ 114. My car's race weight is right around 3190 right now so I think if everything goes well with yours then you will be looking at 6.50's to 6.70's.

My goal was also a 5.99, I just barely missed it. I barely missed the stock cube nitrous record too (9.32) I went 9.36 @ 145

There is a drag racing calculator that can give you a pretty good idea. It's in the sticky's in the Drag Racing section.

I went 6.055@117 with a 1.38 60 foot on a suboptimal pass (had to pedal it to bring the front end down).....

Car was making like 720RWHP on spray.... I think on a full out pass where I don't have to lift it'll go 5.85-5.95 with the same tune.... my car weighs 3400....

Nothing crazy, removed all the usual stuff like stock seats, ac/heater, center console, bumper supports-blah blah. Car has all the light weight suspension items, drag brakes, draglites, lightweight hood, manual steering rack, manual brake booster etc etc.
Car also has a 10 pt cage and wheelie bars.
You have the turbo and all that goes with it so that will add weight but you could probably get her down some more I'm sure.

my race weight is 3250...

i havnt spend any money on weight reduction except for drag lites.. at the track i run skinnies on front and 16 inch alloy camaro rims on back...

ac is gone bumper supports rear seats w/ seat belts cruise control wiper fluid heat shields exhaust is dumped before axle just two speakers in the very front also cut all wires but tail light wires running to back of the car..

from outside the car looks stock (weight wise) except for the rims.. on the inside the only thing you can see are the seats missing.. only noticable things are the A/C and front bumper support (but people usually arent looking at that if the hood is popped anyways)
