Default DAMMM!!!.....here i go again

Went to the strip again last week (1/8). Best i could do was 9.40 my 60ft was at 2.7 Im getting pretty upset now, i have to admit that the track really sucks big time, its in mexico and its the only one we have. Before that, i had run a 9.01 with a 2.3 60ft, but now i think these stock tires just dont have it no more. I was slipping the clutch around 2000/2200 but just spun like crazy. Only did 3 runs before i got pissed. My car is stock right now, So now this is what im doing......

Thinking of a 100shot

So my question is: What can i expect from these mods not counting the nitrous?

hell you could run slower with a 100 shot if you continue to not have a setup car. either figure out how to launch or setup the car accordingly with the right tires and suspension. no reason your car cant go 2.0 60' on radials. more power doesnt mean faster or quicker in drag racing.
