Default 12 second car

So what is a good setup to get in the 12's. What i have right now is a 70mm tb, 4:10 gears, bbk cold air kit and that's pretty much it. thx

Supercharger, Nitrous, Suspension, and shoot for mid 11s. Or like stang8689 said, drop in a vtec and shoot for mid to low 8s.

If you got a good h/c/i with supporting mods and suspension, it should run 12's, possibly on street tires
