I have run 10.01 @ 133, foot braking on nitrous, with a 1.40 60 ft, automatic trans. What is your 60ft? If it isn't low 1.4's most likely you're chassis setup is off or your car isn't getting full boost till higher in the rpms and is most cases, blower cars will mph high and not ET as good due to a slower 60 ft since you have to wait to get max boost. Solution, get the chassis tuned, IE. Make sure your instant center is set up right and you have the right shock settings and spring rates, or try leaving at a higher rpm.
