Default Getting the S197 to break into the 12s

Hey guys,

Finally got some cool weather in florida tonight which led to my new personal best 1/4 of 13.104 @ 106.88 with a 1.935 60'. Has anyone broken into the 12s with just a CAI and tune on stock tires? Can it be done? I would love to get there.

I don't see 12's happening with just an intake and tune.

heck it took that + pullies, drag radials, and O/R H for me to hit 12.83

You gotta be a good driver to get 13.1 on 287 HP GJ man!

I'd like to put up my timeslip but I can't figure out how to place the picture file in the post. Can someone help me out?

Thanks for the compliment about the driving. That was probably about my 15th run ever at the track!
