you should look into a torque dampener. Cheap, 5 min to install and can help your 60' time up to .4 seconds (mine did)

All I can say is with a 2.6 pulley you better have an H/E, dual pass, and 60 lbs. injectors with a tune. Other wise your car is just waiting for a problem to occur.

Ok, that is a good first start. If you can launch as good as you say you can, you should be able to hit a 2.1 60" or 2.0 60". If its not hot, and you don't get to much heat soak, you could run mid 13s or low 13s imho. I ran a 13.6 @ 108 with stage II, exhaust, header, and downpipe.

I will be very surprised with those mods if you can pull good 60" times. I have a set of BFG Drag Radials for sale if your intrested. They are mounted on wheels already so when you go, you could just throw the two new wheels and tires up front. Let me know.

So I am still an ass.

You lucky I like the way you wash cars or I would be inclined to flip out on you the way I do.

I say 14s because of general lack of mounts and experience

Just trust me on this you will most likely not break into the 13s and if you do it will be something like a 13.9, with the temperature the way it is in Florida right now and your lack of real cooling mods is going to hurt your times considerably.

If you leave the car in the on position doesn't it run the I/C pump still?

If so, you should do that when you CO it.
