What kind of 60 foot times have you cut? How much boost are you pushing?

I don't see it happening, man at least not this time of year. Its been hotter than seven hells here lately. I mainly say 12s are unlikely because your current best is on a 2.1 60'. If it had of been on a 2.3 or worse, I could see a lot of room for ET improvement via better 60. The trap speed is definitely there for a high 12 run, but imo you are going to need some better air and some sticky tires to pull off a 12. With that said, prove me wrong bro!! It would be sick of you nailed a 12.XX at the Rock, especially this time of year.

you'll most likely need a 2.0 60 to get it. do the footballs and chain mod and your in.

Imo, he'll need to pull better than a 2.0. He ran a 13.5 on a 2.1, so a 2.0 will probably only drop his ET about 2 tenths...... Unless OP is falling off somewhere else on the track and can improve there.

Wanted/Matt ran a 12.99 with similar mods and a 22psi HP Tune from me. Nothing TOO crazy either. So it's doable! I think he even cut a 2.2 60' which wasn't really great!

not gonna happen brother. Im a lil ways from you and theyre calling for 108 with the heat index. And i agree with the other guys 13.5 with a 2.1 60' your gonna need to work on your shifting or something.

I was at the track last night and the corrected DA was 2300ft at Cecil County Dragway. I've trapped 110mph with a tune and k+n with a DA of 400ft...last night was 109.2mph with the addition of a downpipe lol. My AIT's were 120+ degrees.

It's doable with traction but i'm going to say it won't happen on street tires and in the summer heat.
