Well from a little research they run seem to run anywhere from low to high 12s. 12.8 seems to be the normal. You'd be very lucky and one of the very few to run a 12.8 in your L99.

I ran a 13.4 first time in my L99. Been running 13.5-14.0 ever since.

I think almost every real enthusiast is gonna Magnacharge. it appears the cheapest and gives the car a healthy dose of usable midrange power.

And thats just a supercharger.....nothing else... Hell i saw a L99 with no other mods mind you, on a perfect night, the stars aligned run a 11.93


I'm getting tired of all this talk, anyone, or shall i say everyone knows the auto ,once done right is the drag car......more fun ,NO! but set up correctly i see no reason for
and intake/ sc/ full exhaust, some minor changes to the suspension, AND NO stall
for it to run in the uppper 11's consistently and suprice the heck out of alot of Xf-r M3's and even a Cts-v which i know alot about since i had a tweaked LSA 09 -v


hell i felt like king of the road....mostly do to the power/luxury factor. now it is a ,power/ God a New SS in real life thing/

I'm so waiting for the coyote motor mustang....when he doesn't let me pass

e39 m5 are no joke, they do run high 12s stock and are very fast on highway, all around 4 door performance car, not bad for a 9-10 year old car
