With 320whp and 325wtq & 410s (Automatic), I went 13.2 @106mph with a 2.2 60ft. Does that sound about right or seem kinda slow? Seems like I should be in 12s with that trap?

There's definitely room for improvement with that 2.2 60ft and 13.2 ET.
Do you still have the stock torque converter?
Any suspension mods?

Stock suspension and converter.. How could I improve the 60ft with street tires and an automatic? I think the back are Michelin 255s and 245s on the front

1. Higher rpm stall converter.
2. More traction (tires and, at the very least, LCAs).

i dont go through the water box.. I do a burnout just enough until theres a little smoke then launch til it hooks and stage. I know you're not supposed to do anything with normal tires but I've tried both and it seems like burnouts help just a little

Yes a small turn of the tires will help a bit b/c your cleaning them but dont do anything excessive. The compound isnt the same as slicks. You can also try messing with your air pressure a bit as well. From what i can tell 1.9 to 2.0 seems to be about the best guys can get on street tires. You could get a set of rear slicks and then you would be better off. LCAS like previously stated.
