The auto will make it hard... your going to need to get a stall, jmod, I'd do headers and tubular K member, slicks and 4.10's... However with the amount you'll spend going to a tubular front with the coilovers, etc that you will need. you could have bought a nitrous kit and can run deep into the 12's... These cars NA just dont have much... especially with the autotragic..

You only listened to half of what I said.

I spent about $2200 with the tune for my V1 setup and that's all I have done on my auto. Once I change out the belt and hope it doesn't slip, 12s will definitely be in the future.
