I have a few mods, but dont really care to sink a lot of money into upgrading anymore.

Cams
Ported head and matched intake manifold
Titanium valve springs and retainers
Ported TB
JE pistons 9:1 Comp
1g rods
ARP everything
660cc injectors
AFPR
255lph Walbro
S-AFC
14b turbo
punishment racing FMIC
ACT 2100
Fidanza flywheel
AGX struts
Eibach springs

I bought the car with most these mods. I really just want a fun street/drag car before moving on to my next project.

Anyone feel as though I would have any problems running 12's with this setup, or atleast trapping 105+mph?

The biggest suggestion i can make to you is getting a pair of slicks or street radials.. being fwd with a small turbo that spools fast is good for the street but for fwd that means more burnouts.. with that setup a high 12 should be easy with good traction..
 
Installed the FMIC today. It pulls pretty good. Cant wait to get it dyno'd and see what it does. Im pretty pumped. I know traction is gonna be the problem. I hope to get a pair of BFG's for the track.
 
I love the fact that you want to do it on a 14b. Most other ###tards are like "Yeah, Can I run 12's with a 20g?". Of coarse you can with the proper setup. You on the other hand, are the man! 14 FTW

The FWD record on a 14B is mid 10s if I remember correctly, its incredible how people push those little turbos. I'm actually putting one on here soon and seeing if I can break into the mid 12s.
 
I love how no one realizes that this thread is from '08 and they keep adding a bunch of crap to it. Come on guys, read threads before blindly replying.
