I have a good amount of mods done to my car and I'm looking to get as close to 10's on stock bottom end as possible if not 10's. Looks like there will be around 5000 to play with on changing my set-up. Car is going to be down as of mon so let me know what ideas you guys have. I have an all boost no nitrous set up i'm looking at doing but i'd like the nitrous guys to chime in with how they would do it too. Here is a current mod list. And yes i have the dcr oil mods which will be going in when the car goes down.
Exterior
Black Housing Headlights
Sylvania Turn Signals
Painted Side Mirrors
Rolled rear bumper
Interior
Dual Pillar Pod
Aem Wideband
Autometer 30/30 Gauge
Turbo Timer Mounted in Tray
Suspension
Stock SRT-4 Struts
Eibach Pro Kit Lowering Springs 7,000 miles
New OEM Passenger Side Axle 3000 miles
APX Howell Front Strut Bar (Silver)
PWERKS Tri Point Rear Strut Bar
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!

i mean ive pretty much been looking at around 30psi on race gas, but im seeing if headwork is def needed or if i can spend that money somewhere else to see some gains
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

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
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....
