Unless it had a turbo, S/C, or NO2, there is no way a 5th gen with a 3.5 would reach 11.99.

How do you figure? A 2004 SVT cobra runs a 12.9 second 1/4 mile. http://www.albeedigital.com/supercou...0-60times.html

why would u ever need the max in the 10s? if you want to get in the 10s you'll have to make it a TRACK car. not a car you drive to work. and if your makin a track car i hope its not with a 4 door sedan.

i would be happy with the max in the mid 12s. what else do you need from a daily driven car? just my .2$ on the topic.

ok, so on www.vqpower.com, was the website lying when it gave props to the guy making to 11.99 on slicks? He had previously run low low 12s, and finally inched into the 11s. If the site was lying, then Im lying.

Never thought of that and it's RWD too. Don't know if the mounts would line up since it had the VG.

Yeah, the J30 is a boat at 3500lbs, but so is the mustang cobra at 3600lbs.

I thought I might have a little insight as to how to get a 3200lb FWD car into the tens as it was just recently done with a Front Wheel Drive 3000GT. The memeber from 3si.org that did it has spent the better part of 18months working on this car and tuning it with 2 different set ups the current set up (Twin TD-05 Big 16G's) has been on the car for about 6 months. Heres a Vid of the first ever 10 second run in a FWD 3000GT http://www.3sforum.com/vids/10seconds.wmv

And here is a breakdown of his time slip:

60-1.920
330-5.007
1/8-7.408
MPH-107.46 holly CRAP that 's a crazy 1/8 MPH
1000-9.322
1/4-10.910 FIRST 10 second FWD 3S
MPH-142.15 Another 140+ MPH Run-New 3S trap record

The mod list he gave me is this:

Mardigra didnt respond yet? Why would you want 10 sec's in a max anyway? I'd be happy with 13's just to beat some srt4's and evo's. I'll never see that though cause I have an auto. Hopefully I'll hit 15.5 at the track on friday.

Auto= teh win

I agree with the ajcool2's statement. 13s would rock.
I used to have an '87vette, and I think that ran high 13s.
To have that kind of acceleration in a late 90s max=

After a certain amount of power, an auto becomes an advantage rather than a disadvantage. An auto can shift much faster than a human can which negates the disadvantage of putting out slightly less power to the wheels.

3.5vq + AEBS stroker kit to a 4.3L + turbo + N20 = well really i have know idea but it has to be around there. i have heard talk of around 1000+ horsepower with this setup.
