Default Horrible 60 foots, is it in the tune??

Ive been skimming around on here for a while as well as on the HP Tuners website and cant seem to find a good tune for a 98 Formula. Can anyone help a guy out?? Ive attached the tune file to the page, Here are the mods;

4L60 Trans(stock stall)
SLP Lid
LS6 Intake
Pacesetter LT's & ORY w/ cutout
Magnaflow Catback exhaust
MT 255/50/16 DR's
3.23 Limited Slip

The car seems to trap good(84mph 1/8th mile) but gets a horrible 2.19-2.3 60 foots with zero tirespin.

The previous tune that I ran a 12.96, 2.04 60' on 275 Nitto street tires was lost when I turned the car back to stock.

Too much tire for a car with a stock stall probably causing the car to bog out of the hole. Like mentioned above, a higher stall converter (even a mild 3200) would improve those 60-ft times.

I think with traction you are bogging with 3.23s and a stock stall. A little spin can actually help your times in some situations

Try running it without heating the tires. As stated before, sometimes a little wheel spin helps the 60' times. Helps the engine get in its "happy zone".
