Default Is350 in the 1/4 12's Roll Call

If your hitting 12's in your is350 im very interested in knowing what set up you have.
So far i have:
Intake:F-sport
Headers:Ppe Headers
Exhaust:stock

Im interested in knowing what the Joe-z, Borla, Ark exhaust systems are pulling, i am also interested in seeing people pulling with map-ecu piggy back , lighter tires, sway bars, or any set up getting your is350 in the 12s. I know we are very much capable of 12s.

Caymandive hit 12s without piggy back or headers i think he might of even had the stock lexus rims, he dosent mention anything about sway bars , and uses tanabe which is supposed to produce less power than the true dual exhaust systems, granted he had heavy weight reduction, and ideal weather.

You can also google:
Is350 finally in the 12s.

Well, some use the rule of thumb that what you run in the 1/8th mile AND then tack on half of that time onto it to net your estimated 1/4 mile time. If I do that, I get a 12.97-12.98 time, according to my best run from my sig; all I have performance-wise is a Fujita intake. Imagine if I had ran on a 1/4 tank, nothing in the trunk, had headers, exhaust, and had lighter wheels!

To get to 12s, I would say you need slicks, some weight reduction, full bolt ons and with less then 1/4 tank of gas. Maybe even some nitrous. You would also need a raceway closest to sea level. This is my best educated guess I assumed.

Anybody consistently hitting low low 13s? 13.1? 13.2 , if so what is your set up so far? I know most of us dont buy these cars for drag racing, im guessing if that was the case you would see more is350s in the 12s.

I look at the traps for these cars. They are dig monsters. So to get 12s you need to come tearing pavement off the line and get super super low 60' times. Stall it as high as possible

I live at sea level. When it cools down I am heading to rockingham and see what I can do.
