you'll probably be close to a full second behind. with your mods i can see you running a mid 14, and the 3 valves run mid 13's. good luck though!

the new GT's has 3.31 with an auto and 3.55's with a stick. rarely do you find an auto with the 55's.

point of reference, i took a ride in a 04 GT with 4.11's, an X pipe, Magnaflows, and a retune - it was just about even with my 06 automatic that only has a CAI and Flowmasters. (together good for about 10 HP)
