yes adjusting the timing can help a lot

i've read articles where they bumped the timing and got as much as 10-15hp out of it

sounds like your running pretty strong as it is, when mine was an AOD i was stuck in the 14s for what seemed to be eternity (the real problem was that i was racing at a crappy track)

have you pulled your air silencer and put in a K&N filter yet? if not, then do it its very cheap (air silencer removal=free)

are you shifting the AOD yourself (1-d-1 shift), if not then that will give you about 2 tenths by itself

all of this combined (if you dont have them already) should eaily get you into the 13's
good luck
