ok, I am heavier than you (3700 with me in it...)I have significatly less mods than you (no real engine work) and I can run 14.6

your 60' time will make or break a run, you say you dont have traction probs but I dunno...

I have to leave at just above idle on street tires...
get som subs, get some LCA,
get some N2O if you really want to break out of the 14's!

Seriously, I think your car is capable of 13's but all the power in the world wont help if you dont have ther right tires!

DO NOT GO BY THE STOCK TACH!
It is way off, my shift light is set at 5100 rpm...my tach reaches 5500 when the light goes on! want to get a cheap shift light? go to http://harlan.sketchy.net/ they are 35 bucks, easy to install and are programable to whatever RPM you want to shift on...
