With a good wheel/tire it should go low 11's, easy.

Have you ever launched a car that probably weighs over 4000lbs (incl driver) with stock suspension on a 20" drag radial? I do it all the time (Well, launch a 4Klb car, but not on a 20" drag radial) and yes, 1.8x is not the best 60ft time in the world, but given that only a few passes have been made wit this combo, I'd say they're doing prtty good. I figure you might be able to get in the 1.7x range with the 20" drag radials, but not much better.

No, it's going to take more power than that to get into the 10's. These are not light cars and the things that might have worked for folks with 4th Gen cars will not necessarily hold true with the Gen5. You should not be trying to compare what 530rwhp would accomplish in a 4th Gen to what the same power is capable of in the new car.
