I would say anywhere from 11.7-12.2 depending on driver skill, tire selection, weight, and how you launch it.

Mid to high 11's. Besides driving ability, weight plays a major part. I was running 12.30 in my X SE with 330whp with about 200lbs. of weight reduction

is that actual, uncorrected hp? on street tires with full interior 11.8-12.0
since you're asking to find out its potential im guessing youve not been to a trackday yet and have little experience, and you'll likely see a first couple runs in the 12-12.5 area

Completely depends on tq, a 420hp car with 330tq from a pump gas car will run slower than an e85 430hp car and 400ft/lbs.

With 400whp (Mustang Dyno) and a 2815lb curb weight (3020 with me in it) went 10.51@127 w/a 1.40 60ft. SO, depending on weight and launch, it is potentially 10 second capable. All depends on how far you are willing to go with destroying a street car for an ET.

If you go to the track and clock off an 11 Second pass, I would be happy with that. It looks like you dont have much expeirence at the drag strip. Dipping into the 11s, would be a good start and I think its possible.

A few years ago, I made 430ish on a Mustang Dyno on FP Red stock motor/stock head and went 10.59@131. This was pretty much at full weight on 17 Rota Torques with the BFG Drag Radials on stock crappy Tein S tech springs. Def a 10 second is possible for sure
