First night at the track after the headers. Times inside

Well tonight was my first night at the 1/8 mile track after I have put on my headers. Need some help with the numbers. look in sig for mods.

Best Run:
Reaction:.716(does that suck or is that decent for a newbie)

60': 2.099(does that sound right?)

1/8 mile ET: 8.865

MPH:81.758
Remeber this is with an A4 and 2.73 gears. What would 3.42's do for me? est. times would be nice.

2. Street tires or DR's?

3. What year car is it?
