Default Possible problems with b16??

OK i ran 2nite at a local track here and it was super muggy which im hoping is the problem..... But my times really sucked...... my best time before was a 14.6 with a 1.6 60 foot.. with slicks

2nite my best time was a 15.1 with a 1.7 60 foot @ 85 mph with slicks... why the hell are my mph so slow! we have done a compression test on my engine and its 183,185,185,185....... i never missed a gear or anything.. it seems that 3rd gear is chuggy and 4th...
its a usdm b16a2 in an ek using a stock dx fuel pump
any ideas on what the problem could be?
