I'd be happy with low 13'*, maybe high 12'*.

Can I do it on a rocker setup or would I need a cam?

My sig includes everything but the PCM (not in yet, need CASE learn).

cam

Boosty'* running a 13.185, you should ask him... He'* running a Gen V, S1X Cam, and some supporting mods. Not sure what pulley he'* on, probably a 3.1...

To give you an idea of how ambitious that is, take a look at this...

It can be done with rockers. Rockers & cams are pretty close to each other when you look at the total cost of parts; but a cam will give you more power at a given rpm then rockers ever will. The choice is clear in my opinion

get on the bottle with rockers, header and a 3.2 (all the supporting mods as well). you didnt have any major issues with the old car on juice did you? i think nawz is cheating to some people though.

What'* N20 cost $4-6 a pound? That can add up fast if you’re going through a lot of bottles, not to mention I know using it on the street is illegal in Ohio & probably the same in other states. Rockers + a N20 Kit would already cost a few hundred more then a cam would.

you're educating the educated... but i guess i'm incorrect.

i thought you werent gunna drag race this car

X2 dont even bother with Rockers....

makes better and more power thru the power band.....S1X FTW

If you want any sort of reliability with that much power you'll need a built trans. If you can put up with the extra work involved, go for a cam over rockers...the top end improvement makes it well worth it. You'll also need to look into exhaust, slicks, a fuel system upgrade and a tuner.

Or, you could run N2O to reach your goal. Just keep in mind that if something does go wrong and you're running a decent sized shot you can easily blow the motor if you're not paying attention.
