is a 13.9 out of the question?
taking the dd to the track just to see what it'll run this weekend. '00 gt auto with catless midpipe, flowmaster catback, bbk cai, udp's, 93 octane tune, 3.73's, and if i need them, et streets. i went to the track with the previous owner and on his first run ran a 14.4, then it started raining so he couldn't go again. he spun a tad on the launch which is why i'm bringing my etstreets just incase, and that was without a tune. i was told in the s/s section i'd need a stall to get into the 13's but just figured asking a second time couldn't hurt

I would hope it would run high 13's with those mods and a set of DRs. Obviously, the weather conditions will play a role, so pray for some dry cool air to make max power.
I guess the other major factor may be in the auto trans. Does is shift decent or is it mushy? Power brake the hell out of it and let it rip.
Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

I would say drive it like you stole it, but lets be honest here, its a high 13 low 14 second auto. All you can really do is hit the gas and pray. I would hope with your ET Streets you would be able to break into the 13's.

the trans shifts good. pretty solid shifts when the 93 tune is on. i set the shift points to "mild" on that tune since i hardly use it. if i could click off a 13.99 i'd be estatic lol. but if i can click off a 14.2 or something i'd be happy with that.
