With a 100hp shot and gears and exhaust, if you can hook up at all, Id guess maybe a high 13. Member of car club ran a 16.5 in a totally stock(down to paper air filter)2000 automatic V-6.

lowering the car will hurt your times . . but you might be able to pull off a 13 second pass

i have only ran my car 3 times and my best time was a 16.401 and i found out that the 1999 and the 2000 have 3 less hp but that really doesnt matter.

dont get the TB is not gonna help much. get a tune from justin at VMPtuning.com instead he is local in orlando and can even dyno tune or you can run your car after he gives you a chip to see if its safe and what not.

i think i should just buy the xcal 2 b/c im going to have to use a tunner again after i do later mods.
so i might as well just spend 380 now besides 269 then 380 later.

what else do you need for the tune to work? and how many settings can you get on that chip? I'm thinkin a nice fuel saver setting, and then a street setting incase I wana race or something...

cuz seriously if he sells flip chips for 270 and thats ALL i need.... i'd get it as soon as I get the money... screw the headers, tb, and shifter....

just like a tuner the tunes in a flip chip can be changed, and it holds 4 tunes total. Just call him and talk to him.

to be honest that N/A time is kinda slow, but like you said thats stock, those first few bolt on's ie CAI and Exhaust help quite a bit... probably high 15's ...
