Couldn't get into the 12's

I was attempting to run a 12.9x before doing any mods but have to admit I was unable too. Tomorrow Iam having a custom 3 inch catback installed. I am happy with my times as of present since I have had the car 2months. Here are the times, replys welcome.

1/4 13.06
Mph 107.38

R/T .404
60' 2.169
1/4 13.25
Mph 105.65

R/T .485
60' 2.166
1/4 13.16
Mph 108.77 Best trap speed yet!

nice times, drag radials will do it for sure,do you have an auto or m6, i can give advise with the m6, my car loved the 4.10 gears, , if an auto 4.10' are too much and with a m6 the rearend will not take drag radials with 4.10's. should be fine with the stock 3.42's. dont expect any performance from a catback except better sound.

I know how you feel

I kept on running 13.0's

Just keep trying, the cooler weather should help.

Good Luck!

But your sig shows:
FRA mod with K&N filter

IMO thats a mod.. just to clearify. hehe

not bad tho.. let us know if the catback gets you into the 12's.

you should be stoked to have done as well as you did. Those are great times. drag radials would definitely do it, or you could really work on that 60 foot time.
