Default 14.0 what will it take?

So I still have not gotten any of these parts yet because i'm waiting to get them all at once. So i'm STILL trying to find out more and more information about what I can do to make it fast without having to buy a SC. What would it take to get a 98 gt to 14.0? I'm looking at getting..


-Steeda Underdrive Pulleys
-BBK Cold Air Induction kit
-4.10 FFRP Gears
-Steeda Short Throw Shifter
-Nittos


And possibly... IF they are worth it. Are they? About how much HP from a Predator tune?

-Diablo Predator
-BBK 1 1/2" Lowering Springs

Drop the BBK CAI and spend money somewhere else. Just my 2 pennies.

Drag Radials will help greatly.

If you can cut a very nice 60' time, then you'll be on your way to improving your starting ground... if that made any sense whatsoever

IT will take a good amount. More than what you have listed.

A few century's Like my 97! LOL no I was supprised what a difference my mods made to my 97, I honestly dont have a clue, I dont even know what I run! But I do agree with you getting several items at once. The end result will be more noticeable. Also I would drop the cold air thing and maybe just get a C&L Mass air kit. There isnt anything wrong with that. I think it may be my next mod. Long tube headers will also help. But be ready to put in some hard labor installing them. Who knows.......my advice........put some **** on it and let her rip and see if she will make it. If not just keep putting more **** on her.

I ran a 14.5 @ 95mph on street tires w/ all the bolt on's (Besides Long Tubes), O/R H w/ MAC's, MSD Ignition, Centerforce Clutch and B&M Ripper Shifter. With the 4:10's I got installed in November, Aluminum Driveshaft, Minor Suspension Work and Nitto's I'm hoping for at least 14 flat. But boy it would make my day if I hit a 13, doubt it though [&o]

With the mods your getting your only looking at high 14's. It sucks owning a NPI GT!
