Default ive got a problem

Ive got me a problem! I have a 1999 Trans Am WS6 automatic with a best run of a (60'-1.883) (330-5.154) (1/8th-7.820 @91.98MPH) (1000-10.132) (1/4-12.075 @116.7MPH) w/ Eagle f1 tires and nos 100 shot, headers, lid, fast toys ram air, bellow, cutout, gutted. everything else stock. I then put in some tokico front and rear shocks which dropped my times 2 tenths and same MPH. I then put in a vigilante 3200 stall, shift kit, 26x10x15 MY slicks and a 100 shot and my times dropped to (60'-1.715) (330-5.029) (1/8th-7.782 @88.56MPH) (1000-10.183) (1/4-12.221 @110.91MPH) I wasnt too happy then i bumped the shot up to a 150 (all same mods as just before) and my times were as follows (60'-1.843) (330-5.155) (1/8th-7.910 @89.95MPH) (1000-10.334) (1/4-12.383 @110.32MPH) As you can see im losing huge MPH and my E/T is slower also my motor didnt experience any damage thats noticable and it drives perfect. Any suggestions on what the problem could be? Any insite would be awesome! Thanks. Ive posted this in the no2 section also thought maybe some tranny experts could see something is wrong and what it may be because this only happened after i changed converter, shift kit and slicks. any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!
