Default What is it gonna take to get the old car into the 12's?

Alright my best to date on my 1992 Sentra SE-R is like my sig. says a 13.770
my best 60' is a 1.92 and the best 660' I think is a 8.75. Do I need to get my 1/8th mile times down and if so what would be the best way to go about that. Change slick sizes which Im gonna have to do since mine are getting old. I have yet to hit 100 mph in the 1/4 either. I was using 22x15x8" MT's? So where do I need to improve Im making like about I would say 200 whp and close to that in torque on my SR20DET and Im getting into 4th gear in the 1/4 but Im not going across the traps near redline. Not sure what I need to change or do?

I have a stock SR20DET
No A/C
No Power steering
No sound deadening
I installed a manual steering rack
So the car has been lightened up some not sure on its weight though
Clutch Specialties Stage 2 clutch disc and pp
full energy suspension motor mount inserts and suspension inserts
Im running no exhaust right now
And like I said it should be making about 200whp and 200 torque at the wheels. Give or take a few hp here or there. That is all the mods that I can think of that will make it go faster that I have as of now I may have missed a few but that about sums it up other than the suspension mods.

more boost.....you'll probably need about 18 and tuning to hit what you want to hit. DO you have any of the supporting mods? Also, ditch the stock top-mount (it is stock right?) and get a more effective FMIC.

Im thinking of turning up the boost just got to get a MBC and make sure Im not maxing out the injectors to where Im gonna blow it up. Maybe also I should try running it at a better track or one that isnt a mile up like the one here in town. 5700' feet above sea level I know it doesnt screw up the forced induction cars like N/A but Im thinking it still does a little.

18psi my little T25 aint gonna be pushing that and if did it wouldnt last long. I know that I can hit 12's with way less than that. Just got to get everything in line and a little practice and I should be able to hit it. I need some new slicks what should I look into getting? I should have after its all tuned and everything about lets just say 250whp and somewhere close to that in torque.
