Are 12s possible with just bolt ons?

  • Sponsors (?)


I checked the sticky and it looks like the ones that have gone 12s either use n2o or some kind of bower. I know the fox cars can achieve this with suspension, exhaust, gears and a few other odds and ends, but can the new edge cars with a similar set up?

The fastest I ran with just bolt-ons list below was 13.3@105mph w/ a 1.9 60ft, I think I did some suspension and slicks I would have seen the 12's.

-Cold Air:D
-BBK plenum
-Accufabe 75mm TB
-Bassani mid-length headers
-Off road H-pipe
-Aluminum Drive Shaft and Flywheel
-Steeda Under Drive pulleys
-93 oct SCT tune
-Stock suspension, engine, trans and rear end (3.27 gears)
-245/45/17 Nitto street tires.
 
Yes it is possible. As said before- a good driver, full bolt-ons w/ the right suspension set up and drag radials should make it into the 12's.

It is going to take a number of trips down the strip. Look on youtube and you will find a number of full bolt on stangs in the 12's.
 
I have a 13.1 run. I don't know what was more frustrating, running the 13.1 or not getting to 13.1.

2 10th's to get into the 12's makes you a mad man. I think I was happier at 13.3 lol

But, I think with a plenum and underdrives, ill be there.
 
Went 13.19 @ 104mph in full street trim, chrome wheels, and full interior. 264rwhp. Many guys have gone 12's with bolt ons. Here is Bill Putnam's official list of NA cars.
