An update on this: 04BlackGMC retuned her and she runs totally different.

The plan is to run it Friday and see what it traps. It's not gonna hook so I'm not worried about et

Update to this: took it to the track after the retune, some suspension mods and fixed a big vaccuum leak and ran a 12.8 @ 108 1.9 60'

So the suspension mods paid off a little (adj torque arm, panhard bar), but still no more trap speed. It was prolly 80 degrees that night.

Went to the track again after getting new DRs and putting in an offroad Y after noticing my cats were crushed and ran a 12.6 @ 109 with a 1.8 60'. It was about 60 degrees when I ran.

So basically I still haven't found why my car is still not at it's potential.

Tuner thinks my stall is too small and I need to put my car on a diet. Not sure what to think really. Car seems faster after doing all this but obviously it's not.
