With that set up OP should be real close to running a high 12.

Like I said above, high 12s with the bolt-ons sounds too high as well.

Nope lol, I know 2Vs with those mods running high 12s. There's actually threads on this site something like "how to make a bolt-on 2V a 12 sec car"....I'll take back DR and go straight to slicks though lol
btw I said low 13s for a reason, to get into the 12s you have to DRIVE....Launching at 5k+ and powershifting every gear at maybe 6500rpm. I'm no new edge expert though

12.99 sounds alittle too fast for those mods you listed. You're proly right, I'm not sure, but I think I realized that cars aren't as fast as they seem. I don't question your judgement, but like I said, I thought I could hit 13.9 on my first time ever to the track with that stock motor. Maybe just a personal experience of mine?
