you would need a 4.10 and a couple other bolt ons to beat it, they are very strong, i would suggest getting a cat back and cai and tune the heck out of it!

You will need a LOT to beat one of those... I had a best of a 13.7x in my 97 with exhaust, 4.10's, drag radials, and a filter... Car was probably capable of mid 13's on a great run..

The 02 TA's have been known to hit 12's bone stock on streets, and even the high geared (2.73) auto's will pull a 13.4 almost every time down the strip straight off the lot.
