Do you have any cells or is boost breaking up somehwere. Because your having problems making power by your trap speed.

I've heard that elevation does not hurt your time as much if you're FI.

Does anyone have any good knowledge on this they can share?

post your entire slip, like 60 foot, etc.

edit: so that we can attempt to diagnose your motor and your driving skills separately...

Something is wrong with your motor. ETs can vary depending on alot of things, such as suspension setup, tires, and wheels. But trap speed is MUCH more useful in assessing such problems since it tends to filter out traction issues. And a 95MPH trap speed is just about right for a B16A swap with just bolt-ons. With even a basic, low-boost turbo setup, I would expect MUCH better than this. Put your car on a dyno to see if it is actually making power.

Something is definitely not right. For example, I ran a 14.8@94 in my i/e+clutch 91 b16a sedan. So with a mild turbo setup(7 psi) you should be well into the 13's with good tuning and slicks.
