Let me guesstimate stock =350 hp,CAI= about 10-15hp?,+100 shot+ about 460-470hp at the crank= about 370Hp at the rear wheels. No gears or TQ so that will slow you down, traction with MT should be great so I would say possibly low 12's Oh yea MPH about 115-117 with that HP.

running the stock runcrap tires without the nitrous i ran 12.79 at 111mph using a programmer and Vortex cold air intake, with an extra 100hp and drag tires i'm looking for high 11s with a small 100hp shot then i will get it tuned and spray a 200hp shot, my nitrous express kit is good for a 300hp shot but dont think i will ever use that much on a stock motor, heres a picture of the nitrous kit

just got back from the track, first time out with the nitrous, after taking the advice from others i didn't spray to well after the 60ft mark because of my stock A4 trans and 273 gears so that only netted my 1.90 60ft times, time to get a converter so i can spray when launching for much better 60ft and 1/4 times, heres what the time slip shows i will post it tonight when i get it scanned.......with a 122.42mph what kind of times will i run with a 3600 converter??

60ft...1.90
330ft...5.04
1/8....7.63 at 96.10mph
1000ft...9.82
1/4....11.70 at 122.42mph
