a lot of the effort should be put into dialing in the suspension. MMFF got a stick GT to run 12.51 with a CAI/tune as the only horsepower adding bolt on; the rest was done with suspension/weight savings (FULL INTERIOR) and aluminum D/s.

oh yea............and this was with stock 3.55's

you forgot to add they were running Drag Radials....or Slicks... cant remember quite right.
haha yea full slicks n' skinnies actually. they yanked a tire on launch.

Then maybe. But it would be a super rough idling, unstreetable car. It's not worth it IMO. Just shoot for high 11's. Thats a more realistic goal you couldset while still having a streetable car.

4.88 gears?



4.56, maybe. i think it'd really be pushing it. but 4.88's? ehhh i dunno. 1st and 2nd would be useless. maybe with a 2 or 3 speed auto or something.

Well you would need the high gearing to launch down the track quickly. I guess 4:56 are enough.
