like i said about 10K will get you there.
 
OK for real this time. Some of this stuff is debatable as to effectiveness, but I figured none of it could really hurt so I tried.

I ran 14.1 in a Gen2 on a 40 degree day. Add a converter or headers and you are there.

You can see I launch pretty hard in the sig. pic.


This is my formula:

LMS twin XX exhaust
LMS MAF
17x9 wheels with Goodyear Eagle F1 275 20PSI
Stock snowflakes in front, 44 PSI Michelin Energy
Ford Racing 3.73 trac-loc
255 Walbro fuel pump
Baumman Shift Kit level 3
LMS chip
Denny Driveshaft
96-98 Cobra underdrive pulley
Autolite 764's
Mobil1 0W-20
Clean trunk; no spare tire, no extra weight 4 gallons of Sunoco 93 octane + 1 Can of 104+ Octane boost
Unhooked front sway bar

Would you happen to have any proof of the 12"s these modification produced. Thanks
 
Alright, being serious I guess. I have run high 13's on bald street tires with a trunk full of tools and audio gear and a full tank of gas and launching at 700 rpm.

Borla exhaust
off road x-pipe
3.73 gears
Trac Lok
Trans and ECU tune
Kenne Bell 2.2L twin screw supercharger


With drag radials and a 1500 RPM launch the car would see low 13s to high 12's
 
I ran 14.1 in my 93. I added 4.10's, posi, 3200 stall ,deablo chip,c&L maf and K&N filter. This is thru 100% stock exhaust.I know if I get better tires or mod exh will be 13's.Total cost $439 for car, 4.10's $8,posi free,converter $400, chip used $150, Maf C&L used $40,K&N $40. So $1077 total. I did add other little things like MSD cobra wires and new plugs but car had 1993 wires on her when i got her!!!! Weight 4000 with me race ready.
 
Yeah, there's a few 13 second Mark VIIIs around. :D

But there's an awful lot of 'could be' 13 second Mark VIIIs, LOL. :p
