Weren't people getting like high 13's in their stock or very slightly modified coupes?

Isn't a SC'd coupe capable of mid 12's or high 12's?

Just curious.

I dragged for the first time on Friday! I took my M and was extremely nervous and intimidated by the beast next to me (huge rear wheels, engine loud enough to skin a tomato). Dmill held my hand through it though, and on my first launch ever, I got a 13.49. I love drag racing! I love the fact that the brute next to me thundering and burning out ended up only a car length ahead at the end. Quite satisfying.

The cool part about it is that I was riding on almost worn out rear tires and a recent dyno run of just 282 hp at the wheels.

Anyway, I am really interested in an intercooler/aftercooler setup. Has anyone done this to a Dinan supercharged car? I heard they (Dinan) will do it, but that involves shipping the car to CA and spending 36 grand. Quite a waste of greens if you ask me...
