    You would have a half a chance if you could get traction. I bet traction would be your problem. Do you have a plan to deal with that? Cause the strip can feel a lot greasier with stock street tires than the street. You might just sit there & spin.

        the flowmaster muffler is nothing but a sound chamber..that wont help anything..unless you get the rest of exaust system flowing free....but you said a cut out..so why bother spending money on the muffler? the air foil does nothing untill you are moving tons of air through the TB...like with a super charger or turbos.....and then..most likely..you would have an aftermarket tb that got rid of the problem. dont waste your money on the air foil. you didnt mention this..but get "cool" man...you need to a get a 160 thermo stat and program those fans to kick on aat 175 degrees to run better.

        and..traction...thats the key...as spoken already.

          But the intake,elbow,gears should do it on a good night,the other things are fluff,I agree!!

            I dunno...with the minimal mods you have that might be a tall order.

            It would all depend on the 60'...I would at a MINIMUM get some headers and full 3" cat-back exhuast to help with the breathing. You mention 3.73:1 gears so I'm guessing you have an A4, I would seriously look into a Vigilante 2800 converter or the like...Then I think you would own the mid 13's with a decent tire and short time.

                I ran that before the 3.73s so I think that is indeed possible. Especially with the cut out.

                  the cut out is just a 3 inch pipe,in place of the cat

                    I kinda doubt you'll get those numbers with those mods unless you get awesome traction. I have similar mods CAI, Airfoil (was on there when I got it) 3:42 gears, and Cutout and have been running about a 14 flat . My main problem is traction off the line. My 60' times are running around 2.1xx-2.2xx on a good launch with little spin. Some Drag Radials (or 315s ) or maybe LCA and Relocation brackets and I should be well into the 13s. I would do the traction mods before you go with more power and you should be close to a 13.5. Also a good shift kit might be good for a few tenths. Good luck.........Later

                      and about the whole exhaust, i dont really have that much cash to play with till summer, i still have the receipt for the muffler my dad bought it for x mas present, it was 89 bucks, so i dont know,i need a new muffler soon, and unless i can find headers or a cat-back for about 250, i dont think i do them this soon.

                        so the b&m shiftplus kit, it is cheap, but i was told that it does little more than the performance kit i have, and how much and wut type of traction things could i get, cheap, i have my stock wheels in the basement, could i mount some good tires to those?

                          That would be a test pipe not a cut out. A cut out dumps the exhaust in front of the muffler or cat.

                              LCAs and LCA relocation brackets will run about $200 for both. http://www.bmrfabrication.com/F-body...tm#controlarms You could put some drag radials on your stock rims for $266 new from tirerack.com http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires....omCompare1=yes

                              or try and get a used set from ebay or something, good luck.....Later
