Default 12's with bolt-ons?

i have a completely stock SS 6spd andmy goalsto be running in the low 12's . my near future plans are to get a cold air intake, LT's, ORY, and a magna flow cat back, port the TB and bypass the coolant through the TB. this will be my everyday driver so i want to keep the car as reliable and streetable as possible and try to stay out of the internals of the engine, what else could i do to get to where i want to be? thanks

The only bolt on that will get you into the low 12s is a supercharger or a heavy dose of nitrous. The regular bolt on stuff like intakes & exhausts are not going to get you there. Internal mods such as camshaft, heads, stroker kit, etc.will get you there, but they are far from a bolt on deal.

My '98 could do 12.85s with CAI, cat back, LTs, a good tune, and slicks -- and driven with no regard for the cars longevity. That's about it for bolt ons. A fast manifold, ported/polished throttle body might cut that a tiny bit, and with high-ratio rockers you might get to 12.6 on a really good night.
