H/C/I + nitrous has worked well for me on my last to builds. The ability to shut the power adder off for months at a time is convenient.

I'm 47 , I have 2 other daily drivers, I wanted a "toy".
My car never had a/c... as a matter of fact the only option was 6 speaker audio with equalizer.
Mine is fun to drive here 9 months of the year... but forget about summer with no a/c.

I'm going to make a run at 11's with E7's n/a, 306, full weight street car, then add n2o and see what happens.
Only been to the track once with this combo and went 110mph in 2000+ d/a (don't recall exact d/a) short shifting at 5000rpm... combo wants 7200rpm. It will be a challenge, which is what I was looking for.

Is this thread still going?

I'll end it. There are TONS of ways to get into the low 13's. To sum them up. Lots of power and few/poor driving skills or a little bit of power and mad driving skills.

At least it is lumpy...

Talking to my cam designer and local tuner they both say I should trap around 114 and if it hooks/I can drive(lol) it should bust 11.90's n/a and close to full weight

Mine should trap 114 too... according to models/design. I think I may need larger MAM, straight through mufflers and 4.56's to get there.
As it sits now, there is probably 2mph or better just in my driving... LOL!
Back when I used to frequent the track, I went 104mph (same car, stock motor, 232hp) with 100 less hp... doesn't say much about my current skills does it?

Nitrous and drag radials suck in the snow.

J/K, I could probably lose my windshield wipers too.
