my buddy with the h/c/i combo makes 325 to the wheels, and has consistent 12.2's.

if that is power to the wheels, you should already be in the 12's

I agree, but it takes some time to work into a timeslip. My dads car made 282 rwhp and I have driven it to a 12.11 @ 110. My car only makes 265 rwhp and I have gone 12.56 @ 106 with a stock suspension. I gave my opinion on the other thread, but figured Id throw my .02 on the rwhp deal!

I agree with these guys, practice makes perfect, so get out there and make the car run those times
