What does it take for a 4.6 GT to run in the mid to low 13's with street tires???

ive seen it happen, justsomeguy on here ran 13.2 with a 1.9 60' on the stock suspension and gatorbacks. mods: 4.10s, TA, magnaflow xpipe and c/b, and maybe a cai(worthless). Tony Whetstone ran 12's with the same boltons I have (except manufacturers) with only lca's for suspension mods and he was on stock gears @ 3400+lbs.

Not saying that it CAN'T be done.. I was cutting 13.4-13.5 on the stockers...but running stock tires, LCA's would help SIGNIFICANTLY for the average driver at the track...

i guess, i havent looked into them. i know my times from gainesville for ffw corrected to low 13.1s with a bonestock set up at full weight and swaybar intact. I will admit a good street tire helps. The michelin pilot sport cups i have are awesome, regular nittos(non dr's) and bfg kdw's are tires i have seen great 60's on

Its defiantly doable! Im hoping with the SLP o/r X, Loudmouth and an SCT tune I will be into the LOW 13's or if I had good air 12's. That is with stock everything behind the shifter.
