My track times

HI guys I'm just posting my slow track times. I wanted to know what you guys thought. Here are my top two best times from Orlando Speed World.
1.
1/4 Mile ET: 15.564
1/4 Mile MPH: 90.23
1/8 Mile ET: 10.110
1/8 Mile MPH: 72.510
0-60 Foot ET: 2.400
2.
1/4 Mile ET: 15.567
1/4 Mile MPH: 90.37
1/8 Mile ET: 10.135
1/8 Mile MPH: 72.53
0-60 Foot ET: 2.384

Info about the Car. WSP Ypipe, Injen "cold air" which sits behind my radiator, Greddy muffler w/ Cattman B pipe, Grounding kit, no cat, 16' GXE rims w/ Goodyear Eagle F1 tires. I'm considering going back to NGK plugs from the bosch Plat4's I have now, but I get exceptional gas mileage. I also disconnected the autotragic shift controller for "faster" ****s.

Weight- no spare or jack. took out all the crap from my trunk. No sound system. about 35% full tank w/ 93 octane. I'm 6ft3' and weigh 290lbs "cant do anything about that".

What I did- Break tourqed the autotragic to about 2100rpms let go and hit it at the yellow b4 the green.

Conclusion, The fact that I'm a big guy and that this is an automatic really sucks. I cant seem to get below a high 2.3 60'. My traps arn't ever past 90mph which worries me. My VIAS is fine so I guess I need to keep trying.

still at 90 it seems like you could get a better time. do you have a bad sensor or anything. i hit 15.2 and i have less mods then you. my freind has a private road and we have a 1/4 mile marked down and i usaly hit like 93 mph with just a y pipe and k&n panel filter tranny cooler and dr mod.

No codes ever thrown That I know about. I have a logger to check any code that comes up. The only thing I get is a code for the cat which I clear. My VIAS is fine and my MAF is fine too. I'd change the stock ingnition coils which suck on my year, but dont want to spend the money unless I know I can see a difference. Other than that it is in the best shape I can put it in.

I did a long time ago. My peak HP and TQ were 190/190. That is with the intake and exhaust mods (Y, Catback) and without the grounding kit which probably did nothing. Some new light is that I just checked my tire pressures this morning. I had 19psi in one of the back tires but still had the 29psi in both fronts. I dont think that would detract 3mph but I will just have to try again and see.

Stock I did 9.64 at 73.0 mph. But I f*cked up the second half of the track and ended up with a 15.07. My best 1/4 run was a 15.00 with a 9.73@71.5 1/8 mile. So the 9.64 run would've been a 14.9 or 14.8.

The first run might as well be stock since it is proven that a midpipe hurts you at the track.

thanks for making me feel slower by showing your stock times. . I guess its not in the cards for me to be that quick. I'm going to give it another try one day, I'm not expecting much. The car feels fast; I guess I'll just have to be contempt with that.
