$$$$$$$:D

You need a 3" exhaust and downpipe, and definetely a bigger turbo than the T25 in the BB DET. You could hit 12's with the stock turbo, but you'd be pushing it. A good set of slicks, strong clutch, motor mounts, and tranny, and a fine tuned setup with roughly 12-15psi of boost could land a high 12. You'll need lots of fuel to run that reliably also, so keep that in mind.

Bleh, I will hit a 12.9 with my T25 soon considering I hit a 13.3@104 with teh slick falling off the rim, 1.93 60' and 8 psi of boost.
