Went the a test and tune last night in Cicero,ny. I saw jack cottons pumpkin there which was running 9.30s

I only had two good passes, first for a launch At 5psi. Car hooked and went 1.58 60' and 6.6@106 in the 1/8 but I lifted.

The only full pass I tried 7psi and it lifted the tires then 10feet out started to spin for 100feet but I stayed in it. Went 1.75 60' and 7.0@104 and 10.7@133.

And guesses what that 6.6 pass would have been? Maybe 10.3?

Very good. So some more details on the tune please; boost, timing, engine management system, etc. I was very upset with the jerks that were trying to lowball you when you had the car for sale a few months ago. I'm glad you decided to keep it at least for these runs.

Stock ECM with a TT chip. 27-28psi. The chip was at base settings except 3% fuel added overall 21* timing

You should fine a new track that one sucks.
 
Anyone with any clues as to what 6.62@106.4 equates to in the 1/4 for a car that traps 133?

There are a few different ways to calculate it, but I have used this conversion for a long time. If you Look at old time slips with 1/4 mile passes,it will be very close.
1/8th ET divided by .64

Looks like low 10.30s with the same 1.58 60'. I think the car needs a slick and 2 more psi. Maybe a 1.45 60'

I already told you multiply mph times 1.25 and e.t. Times 1.56. Should be 10.15-10.20 e.t. With a proper hook

I just went back and looked at your for sale thread - What a clean car!! Don't see very many this nice getting it done at the track. Congrats on the times - very strong on any day, but especially admirable considering it is your first time out with it!
