Default Looking for more power

I have a 95 teg fully built and sleeved with a sc61 turbo. The car currently makes 440 hp to the wheels at 22 psi.would like to put down more or run better times.the car currently has lsd and mickey thompson street slicks. best times 12.8 121mph i think given the weight and power of the car this time is low.should i do more to put more of the power to the pavement or should i upgrade injectors and size of turbo? Some specs are sc61 turbo .60ar journal bearing turbo.750 rc injectors.250lph walbro,custom intake manifold,fully ported and polished gsr head,ya da ya you get what im saying. basically whats the next thing i should do to run lower times. dont flame me for grammatical errors any help is appreciated.

Yeah...like sanman000719 mentioned...ditch those street radial/slicks and get some track slicks.

who tuned the car? should be able to make more power than that with that turbo, generally people are making 400raneg with abotu 18 psi boost with an sc61, even though its an e cover it should still make better power at that boost level imo, sounds lke conservative timing on pump gas???

DR's are pointless at the track. Last summer I was on 205-50-15's MT ET street's and were no better then street tires. Granted I did not burn out, went through the water box (first time trying to do a burn out and last min chose not to) and had water on my tires down the hole track. No getting tires warm + cold night + water on tires = spin. This year it will be slicks only for me haha. Dont be a noob like I was last year and just get slicks!

Terrible advice. I was able to get 1.8's out of my BFG's.

Sounds like a potential tune issue as well, you should be making more Power @ 22psi. You really need bigger injectors, I'll bet they are pretty much maxed out

Drag radials will work if you have the correct size and you dont overheat them, also depends on which brand you use as to what kind of heat they like, BFG'S dont like heat IMO. Now cmoe m&h cheaters basically a dot approved slick ire cause it has a line through it will really hook
