bad day at track, help

You have the trap speed for low 13's if you really hook up, but your launch is terrible.
The only thing you are likely to break if you launch that high is the stock clutch, which wont last much longer anyways. It will probably start to slip after a few good hard launches so be ready for that.
How much boost are you pushing? You should be able to leave the hole around 4k or so with those MT's with no problem. Your stock suspension should cooperate well enough to at least be dropping you down into the low 13's - I mean its not like you a stiffened ride and lowering springs all around, so it should hook up better than what your slip is showing.
I would say practice your launching and your times will get much better - and save your spare cash for a new clutch. Launching a supercharged motor on a stock clutch will wear it out pretty quickly. Dont start throwing random suspension parts at it till you learn how to launch it pretty well as is - They may help a little but you have to really learn to drive the car before you'll benefit from them.

i take it all the way to red line before shifting. and like i previously stated, im not spinning at all on take off, after i launch my car bogs all the way down to like 2k, maybe its just doing this cause of the stock gears? im not used to that cause on street tires im just spinning so my rpms dont drop like that

yeah it is tuned, and i did upgrade the injectors and pump and everything else that goes along with the vortech. although someone told me they saw white smoke come out of my tailpipes when i shifted, so maybe the tune is messed up. i was kinda scared to launch at a higher rpm since my whole suspension/axle/transmission and everything else is stock, didnt want to break anything. here is my timeslip though
r/t = .108
60' = 2.263
330 = 6.130
1/8 = 9.210 @ 79.47mph
1000= 11.850
1/4 = 14.042
mph = 103.47
