yea, its 5spd. that wasnt my best run of the night either... best one was the 8.41... but that was with a 2.1 60' also.
my best time to date is a 8.23 @ 89.5 with a 2.0 60'

I didnt get a chance to watch the vid, but cut that 60' time.. i know you said you bogged, so thats probably the reason unless you cant hook up.

I dont know much about them, but i heard someguy said before he installed his procharger, he had worse traction problems than the Procharger plus Full Length Subframe connectors. Hell, if that doesnt work, get some slicks i guess.

yea, thats the only thing im guessing... haha. i have full lengths too... with struts, upper and lower control arms, pro eibach springs, and cc plates... and traction still sucks... and this is only with 3:73's mind you.

Get some 4.30s, those'll prolly help LOL... im debating what to do myself to my car.. full bolt on car with cams, or just get the S/C. Im doing gears before summer's over, and im tyring to decide to buy 3.73s incase i go F/I, or like 4.10s or 4.30s.
