Lightly modded N/A rx7 drag times?!

Has anybody gone to the strip with the following set up:

K&N drop in
Racing Beat Header
Str8 Pipes with Borla muffler tips

Im wondering what some of the times have been?

Basically its my set up and just curious to know just for the hell of it?

Or anybody with a similar set up, what was your time and set up!

K&N drop in
Custom straight pipe
Stock exhaust manifold...

For a stock car you looking at around 16.5 seconds. rebuilt motor, moderate weight reduction, exhaust, light wheels, clutch, flywheel, cold intake etc your looking at 15 seconds depending on the driver.

To the OP. Your probably loosing 15-20 horsepower on non functioning 6 ports due to the straight pipes.
