Yeah Id go w/ 3.73's . 4.30's are a bit steap,you would be maxed out at about 80MPH on the interstate

H/C/I Gears, Traction, Puilles , bigger mass air....low 13's possibly 12's.

NOS, bigger TB, injectors, and intake manifold. Bigger heads if you have money. I've heard that the stock cam is good for NOS? Anyway, n2o is the cheapest way to gain horsepower.

gears, cold air, pulleys, edelbrock performer 5.0, exhaust (headers, midpipe, catback), 65mm tb, pro-m 77mm maf, drag radials, u didnt say if u had an auto or 5 speed, all that could probably get u around mid 13's with excellent driving

alright thx for the responses, I have a manual. I dont plan on seeing the track much so I feel 3.73's will be fine. I have 3.08's at the moment.

My combination was Full MAC Exhaust(no cats), Pullies, MARCH Ram Air, and 26x10.5x15 ET Streets. This netted me a best of 13.58 at 102. Oh yea and Stock gears. Track elevation is 500ft and the temp was 60* 0% humidity and Baro pressure somewhere in the 30's.
