Did you mean a 13.0 @ 106? 12.0@106 is something an AWD import, with REALLLY short gears would do (we're talking crossing in 5th). Your trap speed is too low for the time set. Not calling you a liar, I think it's a type-"O", but you could prove me wrong! lol. I've always been under the impression that in a RWD car, you need 115+ to break into low 12 sec territory.

I used to have ridicuously fast 60ft times in my Subaru... 1.5-1.6 yet only managed low 13's @ 98-105 because of low HP, and short gearing. I ran out of RPM's at 136mph, 5th gear at 70mph was 4200 rpm.

I hit 14.0 @101at LACR (elevation, headwind, uphill track, and dust) on nothing but stock with 3,600 miles on it. That's approximately 13.6-13.5 at sea-level. Not too shabby with all season tires... lol. Best 60 foot was a 1.9.

Back to the thread though.... anyone know if Kenne Bell is still around? or if Paxton makes kits for our cars? I remember Bell Superchargers being the SH#T back when I had a supercharged GMC Jimmy. Haven't seen any of their products lately.
