Well you should put near 260 to the rear wheels, so with good traction and a nitrous tune and a launch mid-high 13s shouldn't be a problem. Get some headers and a 3" catback and you'll see some huge gains, as well as TUNING.

On the juice you will be in the low 14's and maybe high 13's. Off the juice you will run in the low 15's.

The guy above you was being perfectly helpful. He was only telling you that you won't be able to keep up with much at low 15's. You're not going to use the juice every time you race, so don't have low 13's in your head, have those 15's there. Plenty new cars'll definitely make you look silly, and some, even with the juice.
