Default 1st time out 1/4 miles times, suggestions??

Hey I just ran a best of 13.24 at the track last week, (107 MPH 2.03 0-60). I have a 96 T/A with a Vortech supercharger 6 PSI and headers and free-flowing exhaust. I dynoed the car over the weekend and it had 385 Rear wheel HP and about 390 torque. I have Koni adjustables in the back and KYB non-adjustables in the front. It has sub-frame connectors and a 6-speed trans. What mods do I need to do to get it to low-mid 12's? From what I can tell it hasn't been tuned and the factory rev-limiter hits at 6000 RPM. And help would be appreciated.

Dave

Definately get it tuned, then get some sticky tires and try again. Your 60' is killing you.

I also don't see how you are only trapping 107 if you are making 385 to the wheels.

Default 60' times - I have similar probs

I need to get mine down. I've been twice, my 60's are all 2.0 or worse. I have a manual which is hard to get right for me. I still've ran a 12.4 at 116. Hopefully I can pick up some pointers too.

Default Mods

I've just added Heads and mild Cam. Already had headers, hi-flow cats, CAI, and a tune. Just regular street tires, Falken forget the model.
