Why not take it and find out? As variations between cars will change this greatly as-well. Such as a Notch, LX Hatch and a GT, about 2 tenths difference between the notch and the GT

You couldn't even guess at that. You've left out so many variables. Stick or auto, stock fuel system, what size injectors, what maf, got any suspension work done, sticky tires...??

So, anywhere from a 11.50 - 15.00? Thats a pretty close guess.

Regular street tires (aka not drag radials) you will be lucky to run a low 13.

assuming it's a 5-speed and you hook... i'd say you are capable of running 12.70's-12.90

the 3.55's are gonna hurt you... no where near enuff gear
