Check my times, thats with half a tank of gas and bad weather. If it was a little less humid and I had about a quarter tank left then Id be around 13.5. Start off with gears and a chip/tuner like Superchip or Diablo Predator. Then upgrade the exhaust, start off with the mid pipe if your low on money then move to the catback. Or do a full exhaust with headers, mid pipe, and catback, if you have the money. After that Id move onto the engine with a plenum/t.b combo. Dont worry about a timing adjustor because you can adjust that with your chip. You might also want pulleys but personally I dont think they are worth it. Stay away from CAI's, they are also a waste of money. If you need more info then you can PM me or IM me at coman87.

the easiest way would be, gears (4.10's or higher), headers and midpipe and a chip.. and you should be there easy, grippier tires will really help out with the gears.. but these things should get you into the 13's without much trouble.

its gonna b a little tougher in an auto, but just a lower gear will get u into the 13s. just about any hp mod will get a gt into the 13s with the right conditions and a decent driver, i would have done it stock but my tires were shot (crappy stock goodyears)

Gears, but if you get 4.10s you'll just spin and won't be able to do it without sticky tires. Gears and sticky tires are good for 13s.

I have witnessed a 2002 GT Auto w/welded Magnaflows go 13.66 twice and 13.77 once. But when I raced him he could only manage a 14.5x.

Look below and you see I went 13.85x 4 times in one day (hot weather) with basically just a full exhaust.
