Default Another 5.3 nitrous run

So I went to a test and tune to see what my completely stock 5.3 could do.. It ran consistent 13.0s on motor.. After a few passes I decided to hit it with a 125 shot and it ran an 11.80 at 109 with a 1.7 60ft my other pass it hit 11.9 at 110.9 with a 1.8 60ft so all in all I was pretty pleased considering I was in the setup 600 bucks motor and all the nitrous stuff and it was not tuned, read the plugs and it was on the money surprisingly.. So is this setup on the money with what it ran or am I a under achiever lol

Car 71 nova
Stock 5.3 "and I mean stock"
Edelbrock wet single fogger kit
Th400
9inch 4.30 gears 29.5 tall tire
