With my current setup up which is TFS plenum, Densecharger CAI, and flowmasters. If I add steeda pulleys, catted h-pipe, and Nitto's 555r how many 10ths of sec would my ET drop from a 14.4? My goal is to run 13's N/A on stock gears and stock converter in an auto. Help me guys

Your auto is killing you. You need 4.10s and a chip next. Screw the 3.73s and do the gears before the other parts..

The reason I don't want to do gears right is because in a auto a gear swap is hella expensive,
Gears $140
install $250
Programmer $350
= $740 without tax
So i want to see how fast I can go in auto on stock gears N/A

Without the gears, I think the other mods you listed may be good for 0.2 to 0.3 secs of your ET. So with just these, you may be shy of your goal.

The others have a good point. You really have to get gears. If you cant afford a tuner pick up a speed cal you can get one for $100 dollars from dallasmustang. I suggest 4.10's but each to his own.

A speedcal doesn't work for auto's because of the shift points in the tranny have to be adjusted its not the same as a 5 speed, i wish I would have gottena 5 speed if I had of known that when I bought the car.

Tell me about it. I'm saving to swap tranny to manual. If you havent modded the car yet, why not trade for a stick car, maybe even a used cobra or mach? Only reson I wont trade mine is because I love my car too much and I've spent a fair chunk modding it to my own liking. I'm just going to put a TKO in the car I have.

Honestly though, I'v been where youre at. The gears and chip will do more for you than the other stuff, although you cant really go wrong with the other mods you listed either.
