Depends very largely on your driving, also your tires. I would say if its your first time at the track--15.1

25 seconds, after it blows up from running lean and you have to coast.

What he means is it is not too safe too run a full exhaust and intake with only a fcd. Do you have an egt and boost gauge? You more than likely need some more fuel.

You should be good for 10psi but watch out for spikes in boost. Maybe just get a upgraded fuel pump to be safe.

15.1?
I think even with a bad launch he would be easily into 14's.
With those exact mods you can even *just* break into 13's, but to do it safely you need more fuel, you'd be lucky to get to the end of the track! (well, not quite, but you get my point)-
I wouldn't run your car hard with that setup at all...
otherwsise... mwuawhahah!!!
Get 720 secondaries and an FD or walbro fuel pump and you will be fine. Or the fuel pump and an adjustable presure regulator to bump things up a tad... who knows...

That full 3" system is good for 40-50hp when paired with an intake, and no fuel cut.

My god.... 10psi with an FCD and no fuel correction. That's really pushing the edge. Don't go any farther, and don't punch it when it's below 50 degrees out!!
What year is it??

Ya it seems you have only been concerned with things to make your car faster. You should start looking into safety mods. So far I have spent around $1300+ just for the things in my sig but only one of them is anything to make me faster-the intake. And thats something I bought for my old NA and just put it on here. I am almost to the point where I will open up the exhaust, but not quite.

My 15.1 was assuming he has never raced before. In my experience launching my car at the track for the first time was HARD! With the same mods plus fuel last year I ran a 14.6 with REALLY bad tire slippage. My best to date is a 14.2.
They are right I wouldnt be going into full boost till you atleast get a better fuel pump. They are only like 120$.
