Weight of the car and the 60ft?
 
I apologize,hasnt been weighed yet
Without dighing into finding to time slips 60' was 1.71 of om remember right didnt run ot last year sat all but to drives around town
Was on 28 days on 1 off every month for damn near whole year
 
12 flat on a stock turbo with a soft 60ft is Really healthy.
should focus on bringing your 60ft and 330ft down.
You should target 1.50 and that will put you well into the 11s with no turbo change.
 
Research ed brewer he documented his road to low 11s on the stock motor and turbo a while back.
Turbo was all in 3200 stall with a tbrake.
I've had the stock turbo 30psi on the stock motor intercooler 3200stall and with drag radials with a 1.5 60ft it was a solid 11 sec car and on pump gas alky.
I believe ed was on 26 inch slick pump gas alky.
With a bigger turbo change you will see gains when the car is rolling north of 24/26psi.
Inmo your 60ft leaves alot on the table.you should focus there=
Suspension and aggressive tuning down low.
