I spent the last year or so helping my Dad spend his money on his (when we started) stock 87 GN. (This year will be my car's turn. No more being a grass catcher when the lawn mower goes by!) We plan to hit the track soon, and was wondering what should I expect with it properly tuned. Here is the list of improvements:
*TA44 (boost at 17lbs)
*Cottons Roller cam kit (210 if I remember right)
*42.5lb/hr Injectors
*Jay Carter 93 chip
*Red Armstrong XP Fuel Pump
*CAS V4 Intercooler
*.030 over TRW forged hypereutectic pistons
*K&N Air filter with smooth bore intake hose
*Bypassed TB coolant lines
*Accufab adjustable FP regulator (cuurently at 45lbs)
*TH 3" downpipe and dual 2.5" exhausts and mufflers
*160 thermostat
*Oil breather block-off
*HRPartsNStuff driver side motor mount (new stock mount on pass side)
*Mild porting on heads (basically enough to smooth out the runners)
*pinion snubber
*Transmission rebuilt with Level 10 components, and set up for race (holes in plate drilled out, don't remember size off hand, will have to check notes).
*New D5 2800 stall converter
*I'm sure that there's more that I've forgotten...

Any input appreciated

The combo is good easily to mid 11's with a race chip and 20-22 psi of boost. As it sits now with 17 psi and a street chip, you are looking at mid 12's with a good 60ft.

I would guess a low 12 sec or even high 11 with good set of slicks and a nice strong launch.Use race chip and race fuel and more than likley she will pull some nice low numbers, let me know Good Luck....
