For some reason I don't think thats right
I have an intake, exhaust, exhaust, o2 housing and boost controller. I've run a 12.10@113
I have my cams sititng right next to me lol, once those install I'm sure I'll be in the 11's

So my guess High 11

I agree with low 12's. He'll be losing top-end with no cat-delete and catback. Kinda choking the car out without opening up the rest of the exhaust. With great driving maybe 11's would be possible.

To the OP:
Tire pressure: 20-22psi
Launch rpm: 5700-6000

And you'll have to upgrade to an Exedy twin hd clutch after hitting the track 1-2 dozen times......

I can certainly tell you that you're running a very good time for you mods and trap. What clutch do you have?

I would still say low 12's with a decent launch for the OP and maybe high 11's with a great launch.

Ty! I'm just a hair away from 11's!
hehe, sorry I forgot to add, I have a clutch as well lol
I have a act ttp 6 puck. It has been very good and has not slipped/ locked out at all!

My previous best was a 12.42@111, Then I added the clutch and o2 housing. Then ran the 12.10
