My car has an intake, throttle body, plenum tune and full exhaust with 4.10s and lower control arms and the best that I could run at Irwindale dragway last nigh t was a 9.516@78.44 with a 2.1 60 foot. I was on nitto nt05s and launching at 1500 rpms Im not sure what else I could be doing better.
Slow times at the strip...

That 78 MPH indicates a serious lack of power. Something isn't right.
Edit: mindfart. didn't even look at the e.t. and assumed you were talking 1/4 mile. MPH isn't far off at all. The 2.1 60' isn't bad but it's certainly not good either. 2.0 is good on street tires, 1.9 is exceptional. My thoughts are probably that your problems lie in the shifting arena.

Sorry, I had a mindfart. I edited my post after re-reading your original post. I should have read the initial post more completely. Check my edit.

Don't discount those 5.3l LS trucks! 305hp stock, my 05 had intake, exhaust, 4:10s and a tune and it would roast the tires through 2nd gear

A lot of people like it , including me, a lot of people don't like it(its the steeda street wing with billet winglets) I think it looks good but eventually I would like a 3d wing if I keep moving towards liking track days
It's sonic blue and it has added pearl and flake to make it change colors like a chameleon color would. It's pretty cool.
