Yup, a tune and maybe even a drop-in will get you to low 12s no problem. A catback really won't give you much unless you get a high flow cat or test pipe.

I highly recommend a new hot pipe (upper IC pipe for the X) for better spool up.

 

its seems that the X responds better to mods that the 4G63 engines did?

 

Yup sure does but keep our car has a lil more weight to it lol. Get all the bolt on's i.e. uicp, licp, fmic, intake, full exhaust, plus tune should get you mid 12's depending if you can drive or not. Also +1 on that new clutch.

 

I don't care about the added weight because it's a MUCH safer car.

 

i don't about ET. trap speed is what matters to me... what does it take to make an X trap around 115? on straight pump no meth

 

Full bolt ons and an aggressive tune with 25-26 of boost, plus a great clutch and launch should get you around 115mph.
