Im planning to put SSAC headers on soon thereafter and drop to a 3.3 or 3.2. I need some suggestions on what to do in order to see the best gains. The cam is a go for sure. What can I expect to put down at the track? 1/4 mile with my current mods plus cam? After headers? Will I be ticked off after all the money spent or is it worth it? Im Frikkin AMPED This sh*T feels like Christmas when I was a Kid

After you get the headers, your car seems like an identical setup to mine minus the vs cam. I ran a best of 14.01 without a cam with the mods in my signature, but that was horrible launches and lack of experience (first time ever at a track). I bet i could throw down a 13.7 or .8 with a good launch and luck. With that cam i'd be expecting your car as a low 13 car, maybe high 12 with slicks, with those mods. You should be amped, heck i'd be amped if i had a cam install!!

HOLY S**T. Wow now I'm really amped. I was expecting Mid-high 13's. Am I going to need a good tune to get deep into the 13's? b/c for a good couple months or so, I won't be able to get a good tune. Probably just an Off the shelf pcm.

Mid 13 should relatively be easily attainable with a decent launch. I trapped 97-98 mph, and if your 60' are under 2.1 along with your traps at around 100-102 i'd say a low 13 would be reachable with slicks.
