Maybe custom catback or a catback. Underdrive pulley and drop resistor mod should get you into high 14's. And a good pair of tires.

Also when you hit the track, take out everything you can from the interior, such as seats, floor mates, spare wheel, jack, etc.

you got the y-pipe already, just get a VI and JWT ECU and you in the 14's. You could try and do all the other bolt-ons; cat-back, UDP....but 14's won't be for sure. VI and ECU will do it for sure.

yeah it should because it makes your tranny shift faster and more agressive. haven't tried it myself because I don't want my tranny to fall out just yet.

I have been wanting to do the drop resistor mod for the last week since I got the trans cooler, My NOS kit will be ready to go by tomorrow, and I want to see how it does. The only problem is that I can't find what I have to unplug. If you know where the plug is please inform me. I have been looking all over the modification sections, and it just isn't there.

Dont race with heavy chrome rims or anything, pick up a set of sawblades or steelies and throw some sticky rubber on there (slicks would work).
