Losing some weight will help a little. Not sure what you've done in that department but I've seen some people delete the A/C, delete the radio, delete the back seat, etc.

if you don't want to lose weight modify the suspension.

did it spin on the 2.0 sixty foot? You'd need to drop into the 1.8X range to get into the 13s without adding any power.

it spun a little actully more like chirp and go i want to keep the car as streetable as possable so im trying to avoid launch springs and what not tho i dont think i need them would shorty headers give me a big enough bump to break 13's? im looking into trick flow twisted wedge heads but that wont be do able till at very best start of next season my goal for this car is mid to high 12's consistently

What size wheels are you running?
I'd suggest an aggressive street tire and practice getting it out of the hole. A good launch will get you close without touching stuff under the hood.
