GMPP Stage 3 with Nitrous + Drag Radials = Mid - High 12's

LS2 GTO with drag radials and SLP bolt ons = Low 12's

how about this?? RUN YOUR CAR.. then you will know.. i got a stage 2 IRL to do 13.8 at 105 to 14.1 at 103 average no problem. with SHITTY track prep at 2700ft altitude and never using the DR's i had and the SMM with traction bars at the same time(it was either DR's on STOCK mount's or stock tire's and SMM and t bar's). i was uncorrected trapping at 99 like it was nothing.. baby 1st otherwise SNAP.. honestly even with 2.3 or WORSE 60 foot's my car was still a 14.0 at 100+ average.

Yeah if you upgrade everything....most reliable is probably going to be with the big guys...such as the ls2 gto, ls1 fbody, mustang mach 1, svt cobra, etc. SRT4 is pretty reliable as well

just because you ran a 15 doesn't mean the car can't run 12's reliably

Hey dubsack, those Drag radials hook damn well!!!!!!!! Launching on 1st gear is now comparable to an EVO launch

If i get them warm enough, they will actually hook with nitrous through 1st gear!! On stock wheels, on 2nd gear roll, I can break them loose at 45mph!!! That Stage 3 KICKS ASS (and thanks to the DR's)

Why not? I only use it in 1st with drag radials ONLY. It's pointless on regular tires.

you guys dont think hahn's gt35r turbo kit would put the car in 12's? i think with a good driver, some traction mods, and slicks it is very possible if not lower.
