The Z is running good at the top end picking up 21.2 MPH in the second 660 feet. Nothing wrong with a 2.10 60 foot time.
The problem if the 330 foot time. Are you pushing second gear to redline?

Take out the stoplight fuse. In an 5AT it indicates an unsafe condition with the fuse in and power on while braking. The ECU then cuts your usable power. It will be prone to more wheelspin however, so you need to handle that through practice. TC off and shift manually while keeping the throttle to the floor. Shift short enough from redline so that it doesn't hit the rev limiter when you shift.
Practice a lot.

13.1 is with a Vortech @ 7# boost. I have only run it one night and 6 runs, but that was on street tires and some 5AT problems. I'll post them when I get back from Memphis 6/9. They are consistent as hell and I have a .003 R/T on one of the runs. Got down to last 6 cars that night.
Sorry if that was misleading, but it is in my sig.

There is a guy out here (Corsair) that turned 13.3 with just exhaust and intake.
We race at the same place, he does very well.
