I'm assuming auto trans? 13.4 @ 102 is decent though the Mph seems a little low but that could be due to the Slowmaster muffler.

the trap is low. Was the pass in high humidity/high heat?

A 13.4 isnt too bad considering your on 19's and i am assuming your 60ft was not the best. Give more info and you will get better answers.

Also ditch the flowmaster, I did.

Just got back from Orlando... 90 degree days and the humidity is disgusting...hahaha

Those 19" rims might be killing your MPH also. Especially if they have wide tires. 295's front and back? hehe

Nice.. Get some dead weight out of it, remove front sway bar, skinnies for the front tires, that thing is ready for the 12's. Over the axle, I'd go from 3 to 4" and do a single in/out Borla or Dynatech race muffler. Light setup and sounds great. Goodluck!
