12.0 @ 112
IMHO you don't have enough converter (probably) for the 61 turbo. Stock heads are hurting performance alot.
I would say the best one could hope for with your combo would be low 11's.... maybe real high 10's. With so many unknowns and a less than idel combo......you would probably fall into the low 12's with a decent 60 foot.
Like I said... the potential is there.... but 1st time out..... low to mid 12 would be a successful day.... IMHO.....

Slicks, a transbrake, 25 psi. on a 61 should get you mid 11's on a good clean well hooked high boost launched pass.
If it isn't tuned in advance and you drive like me probably high 11's.

If your car is healthy, Your ability to tune and launch the car is what's going to mostly determine how well you do. What scan tool(s) are you using? If this your first time out with the car, don't plan on setting the world on fire. Just try and understand what the car is telling you that it wants. Don't wory about cutting a .000 light. Instead, sit at the line for as long as you need to get the boost right where you want it when you come off the brake. There's a good chance that it'll go twelves the first time out. If so, it's no big deal. It's a eleven second car waiting to happen.
That's the fun of it. Learning what the car wants and seeing it go faster with the changes. Let us know how you do. Happy spooling.
