I am going to do some suspension but have to research further before i pull the trigger. I know SFCs for sure and LCA and maybe UCA but I don't know which brands and models are the best for mostly street and some track. I bought the car stock and have done all of the mods (well paid for installs). I guess I need to save up for some better tires too. But shouldn't my trap speed be higher as TRUEBLUE said? I felt like my car was pulling great until I shifted into 4th, then I felt a lack of power. I held 3rd through one of my runs but it died off after 5500rpms. Also im not sure where to start breaking after the run, I started right after I passed the time board but should I have continued a little more, or is that where the sensors end?
I suspect that with enough practice, you could pull down some 2.0 60-foot times with your existing mods. But when you're ready to step up, you could go for some 275/40-17 drag radials and some suspension mods-

You'd probably drop a full second off of your ET.

Same car with a set of DRs went 13.6@100.6 with a 1.85 60'
DRs, practice, and faster shifting will get you there unless there's an issue with your TB/plenum and air fuel ratios.
