will you be running it on slicks or street tyres???

i don't think you'll have a problem making those times as long as nothing breaks in the process.

will you be removing the back seat, spare tyre and boot/trunk carpetting before you run???

the weight reduction may help you get better times.

Do you have an auto or a stick? Hate to break it to you but gen 3 5sfe autos are running high 17's -low 18's. The 5spd is more around the range of low to mid 17's-I think. I could be wrong on that. But yeah remember weight reduction helps. The cam isn't designed to be a track car in stock form- its heavy and takes a lot to get it moving. Good luck though.

Isn't the weight to second gain something like:

100lbs=.1sec
