my 03 with headers, vararam & tuned ran
1.85 60ft
7.99 1/8 @ 91mph
12.2 1/4 @ 115mph
i was still learning the car when i ran this i'm pretty confident if i left it that way it would of ran 11.8 - 12.0 with a better 60ft and more seat time

I should find out with mine this weekend. Stock a few years ago I ren a best of 12.4 @113 1.96 60'. That was with a 'mild' launch of 3k and not power shifting. I now have VR, XS power LT's and tune. Car feels much stronger with these mods, really hoping for a high 11 this time.

OP, the VR, LT's and a tune does make a difference on the street, no question. On the dyno, ~30 rwhp or so. Where the car really wakes up is in third gear and up. It just keeps pulling...

Kinda why it is a bit easier to gauge off mph numbers rather than ET, because tires play a huge role in that. If you have an "11 second mph" then you know what the car is capable of, now it's up to the driver to extract that potential.

My 02 Z06 with a Blackwing, LG Pro longtubes, catless X, stock Ti exhaust and a dyno tune did the times listed in my signature. The day I ran my best ET on the DR's I did get the car to trap just over 120mph.
Driving this car properly has much more to do than adding power, to get the most out of it will take seat time. Other variables will be tires, weather/DA and track prep. Giving an exact drop in ET or gain in trap MPH will vary from vehicle/driver combo. For the person that can extract the full capability of the car I would say you should be able to see ~4-5mph of additional trap speed and drop 4-6 tenths off your time.

No, not wasting money, I would think I couldn't drive too good, lol. With those mods these cars should be in the high 11's, with a decent driver. Expert drivers were able to hit a high 11 with them stock. A high 11 stock is very rare though, and I would have to imagine those guys were hammering on the car to hit those numbers. As in 5-6k clutch drop, powershifting it - barely using the clutch between shifts. Cool that some were able to do that but I would not put my car through that abuse just to hit a number. Last time I ran I had a very old set of 17" MT dr's. Running 17" NT05's this time.

To run in the high 11s in a bone stock condition including tires requires a great launch (usually in the mid to high 1.7 range) without a bog, decent air and good shifting. All of this comes down to technique and practice.

You should expect to see a 0.3 to 0.4 drop in ET. (It can be higher.)
This is not necessary and certainly dumping the OEM clutch will induce quite a bit of clutch slip and usually a stuck pedal. Try that with an aftermarket clutch and you will have carnage.
