Default first turbo 1/4 mile times(don't laugh)

went to the track on wednesday night to make my first run turbo and this is what i got.
reaction time: .78
60 foot: 2.244
330: 5.942
1/8: 8.935
1000: 11.520

1/4: 13.698 @104.87
my setup is as follows. 92cx gutted hb. B16, ITR tranny and intake manifold. CM stage 3 clutch with aluminum flywheel. Drag 3 turbo, 3 inch exhaust.

my runs were made at 5psi because it is test and tune.
tires: 195/55/15 XGT V4 @ 22psi

give me some ideas on what I can do to improve this time. i don't only want to hear "oh your 60 foot sucks" I want an explanation on what i need to improve on and HOW i can go about doing it!!!

suspension. get adjustable shocks set em to full stiff. jack up rear. stiffer coils in rear. run drag radials or slicks. not bad time for street tires.

Yeah, its actually proven that raising the rear is a really bad thing to do. It sucks for aerodynamics and throws the whole gyometry of the car out of line.....Mike

I hope this is sarcasm... His reaction time could be 9.9999 and still ran the same time

13.6 @ 104 isn't bad. especially with your 60 ft. you can easily run a 13.4 with alittle practice/tuning.

I won't laugh.
Your 60' time is pretty good for those tires. My recommendation is ... install slicks, heat 'em up, & run 12s.

What kind of fuel setup are you running. Those 60ft times are good. The MPH is low for a turbo car but you were at 5psi so i guess thats not bad. I think if you want to stay with this set up then you could hit 12's on STREET RADIALS. Anyway I really would like to know your fuel setup, peace.
