Those 3 12.5x passes would of probably been 12.4x passes but I was chasing my 12.40 first pass of the day trying to get a 12.3x and held second a bit long and nipped the Rev limiter on those passes, so bracket racing with your setup is perfect

On a 150 shot it should easily dip into mid to high 11's...maybe even low 11's

Your friend was right!
You're messing a lot. Starting with the 60'.
What about the tune. Something's wrong.

Something is up if all you can manage is a 1.9 60' with a stall. My car did pretty much the same numbers with the same mods minus the stall and I had 2.73 gears.
