you want insane speed? loose the 18's for starters and there are no internal mods on that engine that will give you "insane speed" turbo it or swap it out...

No offense, but I'm confused with the last part. Why shouldn't he expect anything faster than a 13 second pass?

I went 13.7 on my stock Z6-Turbo w/ street tires.

Granted it's a 13 second pass, but I haven't even begun to put into my D16 what it would cost for a GSR swap. I'm looking into a fully built & boosted D series that's going to be putting down +/-400whp.

You want to start builiding your motor I'd either start looking into turbo or I'd get a cam. If you want to start w/ a cam look at the ZEX 59300 cam.
