Default 0-60MPH times with these mods?

My friend is about to install the 2800 stall Vigilante, 3.42 gearing, Long Tube Headers, and Hypertech programmer. He currently only has the TRIC ram air intake and the Borla XR-1 exhaust. What are your times or what do you expect his 0-60MPH times would be with these modifications?

Too many variables to predict 0-60; plus how would you measure it accurately??. Driver, launch surface, tires, temp. etc. Easiest things to measure accurately are the splits at the drag strip. But they too are hard to predict day to day.
