Default I want 12's, your input please.

I have a 95' LS, stock motor, tranny, clutch/flywheel, and axles.

My turbo setup:
Precision SC61
Drag Manifold
Custom 2.5" downpipe w/ 2.5" exhaust & gutted cat
Tial 38mm wastegate @ 10.15psi
Custom IC piping w/ Greddy Type-S BOV
JRC 5" IC
RC440 Injectors
Uberdata street tuned(timing untouched)

I am planning to get dyno tuning down this upcomming Saturday so it will be tuned properly. Ok, so far from a week ago my best time slip I could pull with this setup was a 14.8 @ 98mph, with a 60' time of 2.5(yuck). How possible will it be for me to pull atleast a 12.9 with my setup. I just want to be able to hit 12's and if I can get a mid-12 all the better. Current options I have considered after the tune are Drag Radials or Slicks, traction bars, and clutch/flywheel. Right now with no further input what i'm thinking is to get the drag radials, and a week or 2 after order the new clutch/flywheel and hold off for the traction bars for a bit.

Do you think these additions to my setup can get me in the 12's? If not, what else should I consider?

You have a setup that should be making almost 300whp, slicks would help you out more than anything. 12's should be easy on slicks.

i really have no clue when it comes to tires, would I be able to mount slicks or drag radials on my stock steelies? what does a set of slicks/drag radials cost? Heh if you have any info on slicks/drag radials or a thread that is a good read to learn something about putting them on our cars, please post it, ive read all threads about drag radials and slicks on here and TI.

u need it tuned badly, u dont have anywhere near the MPH for 12s. minimum MPH ive seen for 12s is 102 and it sounds close but 14.8@98. you should be running upper to mid 13s with that MPH.

Hit up John (SlicksMH)-he can hook you up with a good set of slicks.

You will also need wheels-I am partial to Bogarts, but Welds and Lensos will also do the trick. You should be able to shave at least 0.6 off of your 60's-which will equal more than 0.6 off of your ET's.

I think i'm leaning more towards drag radials.

Actually I didn't notice a whole lot of spinning except 1st and 2nd(first 60feet, ha).
