14.1 @ 98.

Mods:

Comptech Headers and unbolted exhaust

I think 13's are possible. I am still trying to figure out some tricks with the car.

You guys ever notice on the 6spd... there's a hydraulic mechanism preventing a shift into reverse unless you are fully stopped.

WELL!! There's a way to override that... and I was fiddling around yesterday... and got a check engine light, but the car felt much faster. 1st gear spun out past 6K!... usually doesn't do that while driving straight, at least!

Not true. Chris has hit 13s w/just bolt ons and a few other tricks. The L10 TC helps quite a bit.
