How much boost are you running? Everyone is going to tell you, more fuel, I'd go with 750cc's, more boost, maybe throw in some coilovers 26" slicks, and traction bars. That should get you into the mid-low 11s if your a good driver!

You should run mid 11's on that set up. But if you want more get your self a ported head, oversized valves, cams, coilovers, ditch the steel wheels and find a set of light weight aluminum wheels. Also I would invest in a WOT box

You'd need head-studs to run 30 psi

coilovers will be on the car as well, im just trying to see if with all supporting mods i can reach low 11's. i would do the headwork but it doesn't seem like ill be able to get a head for cheaper than 2000 which would cut into my budget a lot. I'm also guessing dcr head studs are the way to go, skip on the arp ones

Here we go again -

Its been done, use the search button.

Failing that, "White Mountain" did 11.0x's several times at Speedworld in Az which is 1200ft above sea level. - WhiteMtnSRT-4 goes 11.02@131.4 - Video

He added 35hp of nitrous and ran high 10's before swapping out S3 for an AGP kit, ran 10.70's with the larger turbo, no nitrous.

He had coilovers, so that is a recommend those, make sure you get some that have pre-load adjustment, he had Teins they don't have that feature but Nick spun the slicks hard even on his 10.98 run.... Pre-load adjustment will help that some.

He had a ported head, cams and ported S3 manifold. Along with an AGP wastegate.

I won't recommend slicks, I suggest talking to John@M&H. I believe 24.5's will do just fine, others will disagree.

If you plan on doing this often, you'll be asked to buy a jacket, add a scattershield and 5/6 point roll bar....

10's require a full cage btw...
