I would say the GT should run mid-high 11s, depending on driver skill.

I second that.

ATI procharged 'stangs are just pure insanity.

I'd say he's gotta be pushing into the mid to high 11's at the least. When I called ATI about a procharger for my IROC they were saying how they got a completely stock 350 IROC to run an 11.9 on slicks with just the procharger..How true this is I don't know but if it can do this to a stock 350 it's gotta be giving that 'stang some serious HP and Torque. Unless you're prepared to lose or just want to have some fun I wouldn't try and race the 'stang.

I don't think it would really run any better than a low or maybe even mid 12 with that setup alone. That should still take you down easily though (8.41 would be around a high 12/13.0 in the 1/4 by my math) It could also easily be faster if it has a few simple things that you're likely leaving out.

A friend of mine has a 1999 GT convertible with a 10lb Procharger. She has exhaust, gears, torque converter, and recently bought better tires. She runs 12.0s on ET Street type tires, and does it consistently.

Sorry, my sig. was just a little out of date.Since then I have installed 3.70 gears,Cold air induction,cut off the cat,adjusted fuel pressure from 38 to 48,and got my nozzle shooting into the engine instead of away from it(lines too short).What other mods could I do(CHEAP)?

You bought nitrous before headers. That's the first time I've ever heard of that. You have to get some headers for that engine to breathe.

I've gotta agree with that. How do you expect to make power from a motor that can't breathe? More air = more power in most cases.
