there has got to be something wrong, is sounds like a stock car...i've peddled a 300rwhp NA 6 speed car down the track spinning well past the 60 ft and on the 1-2 shift on street tires (not nitto's) and have been faster than 13.8.. something isnt right, are you sure its set up for 11 psi? even so a fully built motor minus boost should be faster than you're going

I've only ever got the blower up to 9psi, it definitely kicks in. My ignition box has been giving me trouble now and then. I have one of them crane fireball ones. I have read the manual and still have almost no idea how to manipulate it. It failed the diagnostic check last time i monkeyed with it. There may very well be misfiring. Other than that, I don't know what else the issue could be.

I would try to work on your launch. You're 60' is kind of slow for having nitto's but I understand you do have a supercharger. I would think you should be in the 12's easy with a good launch and good shifting. Try to get your 60' at 1.9 on street tires. I'm not familiar with launching an m6, but a buddy of mine launches around 4500RPM and feathers the clutch and gets 1.65 60's on Drag Radial (Maybe pick up a set?). My z28 ran a 13.8 with just a cut-out and street tires.
Good luck and keep racing!

It went 12.4@118 on the same tires/wheels I sold you with the car.
