How to get to LOW 12s or 7s

i went to 1/8 mile last night and was pretty excited about my 8.2 run... had a 1.9 60' time...

anyway, iv only got a couple of mods left on my 'wish list' that i made out... just curious if those alone will get me in the 7s/low 12s or am I gonna have to do more??

here is what i still wanna do

160 or 170' thermo (thoughts on which??)
efan/pump
full exhaust (LT, bassani, high flo cats)

and i think thats about it.... any ideas or thoughts??? any other mod thats a good idea for a daily driver without going too extreme or expensive... after exhaust, ill have put a ton of $$ into this truck

I think the efan and LT's are good mods

your 8.2 shoud be hitting a high 12 for sure. When I went to the track last I was trying to hit an 8.2 but kept hitting 8.3's with my best in my sig.

I would think the FTVB would help as well.

Definitely go with full exhuast with your extra boost. I have the LFP hot jet coated LT's and high flow cat pipes . . . 740 off Mark's website for the LT's and 259 for the cat pipes. Awesome quality and incredible sound! I have a custom cat-back set up of dual magnaflow mufflers with an xpipe, but I am going to go with a Bassani real soon, only the best! Bassani catback for 620 from LFP, can't beat that price!

Give Mark a call!

Can anyone confirm this? How much time can it improve in the 1/4?

A 170' should be fine, E-fan & pump are nice I like mine ,but not a big gain, Full exhaust w/longtubes should really help with the combo you have (starting mine today)should get you close.
I was wondering if anyone else thinks A convertor would be worth while? with the ported eatons higher end power band I would think it would be a bigger help in the 60' than one w/stock eaton, Any others? or is it just me?
