I'm not gonna give you the "I run faster w/ less" speech like others have, instead, i'm gonna help. You have all the right mods and supporting fuel mods too. Here goes: How was your timing? You should be running about 18* initial w/ good 93 octane. What is your FP? Is it dropping under wot or is it nice and steady? It should go to where you set it w/ the vacuum off. Is your fuel filter on the right way? Reason I ask is because mine was on backwards and I was only running 102 trap speeds at best. Put a new filter on the right way and now trap 106.50 as my best.

Did you run on a street tire? With your mods, a spinning street tire is gonna slow you down, though some will say spinning doesnt effect mph, I have found it does. What were you shifting at and were you shifting good?

If you have the $$ take it to a good dyno and use a wideband a/f meter to tune it. My best time/mods are in sig.
