14.2 is a good time if your stock w/ an auto. 4.10's should have you in the 13.9's, i would think. better yet, buy a high stall torque converter.

The first thing you need to do with an auto to make it quicker is a high stall and shift kit.

Go with 4.10s or 4.30s and a converter, shiftkit and some sticky *** tires and you will see high 13s pretty easily.

A high stall torque converter allows you to footbrake the car into higher rpms allowing more power on intial launch.

yeah definitely a high stall and shift kit and a tuner. all those will help your shifts and then gears. the tuner you would already have will recalibrate you speedo so you wont have any ghost miles.
