Yeah....I agree. First thing, that T5 kills you. Trust me, I KNOW! Best thing for an engine is lotsa, lotsa breathing. Full exhaust + T5 + 4.10s + traction should put you there. Add heads and you might get low-to-mids. (guesstimates)

I would probably piss my pants if you ran 13s from just that. You probably wouldn't have any traction issues with that AOD with such few mods.

There is a lot you can do depending on your budget.

Thanks,
