slightly worse DA ( density altitude) could surely explain a 1 mph lower speed also . If your not real familiar with da get familiar so you can tell what days should provide more power - its all basic weather: temperature , barometric pressure , humidity

You should have gone faster with that setup. I'm going to assume that you put a taller tire on it than stock, which is going to hurt you. Like I said before, you need a stall.

What wheels/tires are they, and did you try stalling the car up a bit?
Yea it's a 275 60 15 so it's 28in so yep taller .. I tried to stall it up and blew the tires off .. So i Came off a little over idle with a 2.0 ..ran a 8.0 same as the street tires ..the stall is the best next mod..

Bumper supports, tire+jack, not much in the gas tank, rear seats, pass seat, shaved carpet, swaybar, ac, a few smaller things in engine bay and whatever else I cant think of.
