Alright everyone I have a question on what my times would be with these mods:

Full Exhaust (Headers, Cat, Flowmaster)
Intake
Port Polished Intake manifold
Rebuild heads(Lightly Ported with better springs)
Pulleys
Double Roller Chain
Engine Balanced and Bored .30
Full Ignition (Cap, Rotor, Wires, Plugs, Ign. Box)
Cam (204/214)
TB Light Porting, Along with plenum
Limited Slip
3.73 Gears
2800 Stall Converter
Shift Kit (TransGo)
NX EFI Kit (100-120 Shot)

What do you guys think i'll run with and with out the nitrous?

Low 15's. Take a look at the magical v6 board. Takes ALOT to get a 60* below 15.

Prove everyone wrong then...you're the one that asked for people's opinions. Just because someone else has a "fast" V6 doesn't make your car any faster. There are guys in the 9s one here with modded V8s; does that mean that I should be in the 9s too?

Also, 99% of the guys that post on this "Organized Drag Racing and Autocross" board have V8s.
