I don't think a 13.5 is unreasonable with good driving and good track conditions.

if you get good traction (2.0 or better sixty foot) you car is in top running condition, and you can drive
13.6-13.8 at 99-101mph

that a fast time for bone stock
what was the DA?
my friends 02 Z28 A4 bone stock with 2.73 only run 14.0 at 101 (2.15 sixty foot, no wheel spin)
but that was at a DA of 3500 feet....

My car went 13.74 @ 101.9 with only a 3inch cutout and nitto's. That was with a 2.09 60ft (that stock clutch slipped a little). You have headers and that will help, so depending on track conditions and your location I would think 13.3-13.5 with a 2.0 or 2.1 60 ft. Get some drag radials and a 1.9 60 ft and you would be low 13's.

Not the greatest. Hooker LT's work for me. Any type of long tube header will let it breath a bit better.
