Stang runner:
Even making a mph correction of say -3mph (for the sake of saying the G-tech is inaccurate) that still puts you at about 100mph which means you should be doing at least high 13s. The first time I took my car to the track (never having driven an LS1 before and much less an M6 before) I got a 14.2 or thereabouts
The same day...a guy I met there with a 98 Z28 (same engine and tranny) took my car and did a 13.59 at ~104mph. When I asked him how he did it...he asked me how many times I had my car at the track...I said "first time how about you?"...he smiled and said "roughly 220 times".
Moral of the story...it's not the car...it's getting used to driving it. If you went from 2.73s to 3.55s that's a big change and you can't launch the same way. Keep practicing (even if it's on an empty road by yourself) and with no more mods I guarrantee (based on the 100mph trap) you'll be seeing about 13.7 in a month or two.
