Went to the track this past weekend and I am happy somewhat with my Mph, but my time is horrible for what I have. What do I need to get, New rear end, bigger tires suspension parts? to get my times lower? I am still on stock 10bolt and stock suspension though and stock tires. My 60 foot was 2.3-2.4
Say if I got 60foot to 1.7-1.9 what would my 1/4 mile and mph be would it go up?

I would say there's pretty much nothing good about a 13.4 @ 111 w/ 430rwhp. You should be closer to 120 MPH. Do you know what the DA was for your run?
M6 or A4? You certainly need some tires. How much does the car weigh?

Go back to the track and stop leaving at 2000 or 2500 ...... Leave off idle and floor it ! Then let me know your short time ! You just making it worse launching like that if they are spinning its pointless!

For every .1 tenth you shave off your 60ft ,youll knock off .1 -.2 on you 1/4 mile et. Example :instead of 2.4 60ft and a 13.4 1/4 .If you improve to a 2.0 60ft (- .4 tenths ), your 1/4 would be @ 12.5 -12.6 . If you knock .6 tenths off you 60 ft and pick up a full second or better !!

All that power and you have stock tires??? You really need some drag radials or atleast some decent tires. I ran a 2.08 60ft stock and a 13.5 stock and thats on 245 stock tires also. Like the others said you really need to work on your 60 foot and get it below the 2's, but you should still be faster than 12.5-12.6 with all those mods. Again what rpm do you shift at? and how much are you spinning off the line?

with 430 horsepower you should be running 10s or low 11s...how much does that pig weigh ?....id say get some tires and launch it and pray the 10 bolt holds and if it doesent get a 12 bolt....id just buy some cheap LCAS and PHB also if it was my car....and you can pull like 300 lbs outta that thing if its still full weight that will help your ten bolt live a little longer and get you a better time...but you must be doing ALOT of spinning if you are cuttin 2.4 60s and 111mph...my buddy has 451hp and is runnin 126mph...

Nope. If you want to better your times, you need traction. If that traction breaks ****, well, then that's just part of the game. There's no point in having power if you can't put it down.

if you dont want slicks, all you need is a LOT more seat time. you'll never run as fast as with a slick but with the power your "making" on the dyno you can get 11s if you work your suspension.

As mentioned, more practice and/or a set of sticky tires will be the key to getting better times. 111 mph fully hooked up with a 1.7 or better 60 foot should get you into the 11s in good air. Good luck, and as mentioned, you might want to start saving for a better rear end. Otherwise, you'll be stuck with crappy times or broken parts.
