It sounds like a set of rear control arms would help im changing mine this week hope it helps your car hasnt even touched its limits yet you have a nice set up if you wanna work on better et then try to pick up your mph. you have alot of money in this one already spend the $500 and spray it im gona!
How does changing the rear control arms help with launching and et's?

I called Excessive Motorsports in Manassas, Va and was telling them how I want to drop the car off to be tuned. I told them my set up and they said the 24s were too small and that I needed a 255 puel pump instead of the stock one. So I ordered all the parts and just install everything but the pump tonight. I noticed the car a lot slower, wondered if it was because I kept the fuel pressure the same. With the 24s I was running around 38.
I I bump the FP up about 10 lbs with larger injectors? There goes my gas mileage...hahaha.
Not 100% sure if you did this or not but if you bumped the fuel pressure up with the larger injectors that's most likely why the car feels slower, it's running pig rich, if anything bump the fuel pressure down to 32-35 psi to keep it running about the same as with the 24's.

I'd say throw some 4.20's in it! You also could use a different cam But wit what ya got, get some radials and gears and bust into the 7's

Oh no not an alphabet cam....
i would recommend going with a custom grind
the difference in the price of a custom grind and off the shelf is not that much considering how much you have invested in the car....
But if you want an off the shelf this is what I'd recommend for you....
I have no problem going custom, I've just never done it before. I'm assuming I just call up Comp Cams and tell them my set up and the grind something for me???
