Help me here, please. My goal is run atleast 12.9x last night but didn't get it.
My best time is:
60': 2.06
1/4: 13.16 @ 106.82 MPH
60': 2.06
1/4: 13.16 @ 106.70 MPH
60': 2.10
1/4: 13.16 @ 106.75 MPH
60': 2.22
1/4: 13.34 @ 106.25 MPH
60': 2.09
1/4: 13.20 @ 106.57 MPH
60': 2.07
1/4: 13/20 @ 106.31 MPH
60': 2.19
1/4: 13.28 @ 106.55 MPH
60': 2.20
1/4: 13.30 @ 106.54 MPH
I really wish I had sticky soft tires or DRs to launch the car better w/o spinning. I had to launch the car almost bogging to get 2.0 60'. My next mod is bigger stall(shift kit, tranny cooler) and a pair of nittos 555s.
I saw a T/A M6 w/ exhaust/lid/DRs and live tuning software laptop and ran 13.1s-13.2s @ 103-104 MPH consistantly so I think I have more room to go 12.9s
I want to keep my stock rear and its my DD. What do I have to do to get the 12.9?
Mods: lid, TDs, LTs and free mods.

I would wait until you get the stall to tune then. That way you can optimize your shift points. Many times after a converter is swapped you will hit the rev limiter between shifts. Get the pulley done also, that should be good for a tenth.
After these mods your car should run in the mid 12's all day and be very consistent. With some good tires of course.
Also at your power level dont worry about the rear going out. A4's are pretty easy on the rear end compared to a M6.
