Last time I checked, a 13.9 was 13's. In fact, a 13.9999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999999 is still 13's.

Just about every bolt on short of cams and long tubes. So mid pipe, cat back, intake, 4.10 gears, ta, pullies, as well as a good set of tires should net you some low 13 timeslips. Since you did not say anything about a supercharger one of those will... on second thought you might miss 13s entirely.

If this guy was drivin my car I would be in the low 13's.. Instead im still in 14's, Like it was said 30 times above, practice, practice, practice. Then once you think you can drive your car pretty darn well, practice another 40-50 runs cuz you still suck! Well, thats true for me at least...

Practice driving you car, that should get you closer to 13's, but if you really want to break into the mid 13's low 13's get nitrous

I once got a 12.5 at 89 MPH in my V6 Camaro...of course the timing had gone wacky but hey, 12.5! lol

Weight reduction is best free mod you can do, so pull the rear and passenger seats out, the spare and jack, any extra junk in your car, and any other way you can find to reduce weight.

Contact your local club if you have one and see if someone will let you borrow their rear wheels with drag radials or slicks.

Then save up for some gears.

You can hit 13's with a bone stock GT. Myself bone stock was 14.2, gears and my short throw and I was in the high 13's. Dr's and gears with a short throw shifter that you can adjust and you should be able to easily. If not than PRACTICE. I am not trying to go off but seriuosly just keep practicing your launches and hitting 2nd to 3rd one at a time.
