Default What should I run.

Ok so tomarow I am taking my car to the track for the first time. I have a 2.3l 5speed with some modifications. What should I expect to run? Any Idea's.

Modifications-
  1. Warm air intake made out of 3" PVC pipe, with a cone filter on it. It's sitting close to the fender opening and head light opening.
  2. Cherry Bomb Muffer
  3. 95Lph Fuel Pump out of a GT mustang
  4. Removed Spare tire and everything else in the trunk.
I do have some crappy tire's on it. It seem's to run pretty good usually, I do not have the knock sensor unhooked because I don't have a timing light to set the timeing because I would If I did. But just tell me what you all think I will run, so that I will know. I am not expecting anything under 19 but I wouldn't know.

OK, your mark is for 19. First thing I would do is once the car is prepped and ready, it is now you to, Ready-UP.

You have to feel that car under you. I would drive and not worry about the time of the car. You have way too many variables hanging out of your pant leg.
Bad tires for one. Compression is the next. The timing is all what is with the timing? See what I mean about you about to worry about the clock.

You need to have that head game at the light all ready to go. You better beat 19 is 18.99999999 is you run your own race. K-Pische?
