Default WTF is wrong here?! im confused

ok, i usta hit a 12.7 at 110 no problem 1.9 60ft (can do better) i think?

now since i put in stg 2 4l60e i cant beat a 13.0 at 105

not right for a car with full bolt-ons and etc right???

what can cause this?

buddy says it might be my fuel filter or my crappy autolite wires but ran good with them before
changed the O2s to some used ones didnt help with rain misfires in rain like crazy but after a few revs its back to normal
mods in sig running 315/35/17s 555rs
previous owner ran a 12.6@112 with 1.7 60 with no tune or built trans
cant beat a 1.9
any info will help thanks

I've never liked Nittos. That's my input

Is this the same track? How long between these runs?
