If you got it to shift at 7000rpm you would move the top of 1st to 39mph and the top of 2nd to 60mph, eliminating a shift in your 0-60mph time and 2.0s would be possible.
Are you just hitting the top of 5th at the end of your run? Your speed with a 6900rpm peak would suggest you are shifting as you hit the trap. At 7000rpm peak per gear you would stay in 5th up to 138mph. Without figuring DA/drag, you could hit 9.8x with your current power. Another 10-15hp and 7000rpm at peak could get you a 10 flat run in the real world without any other changes to the drivetrain.
Funny to be talking about a 10-flat NA street car. Unreal.

I like math as well. LOL. Both my Car and this car H/C run 9.97. Mine runs in at almost 138 and Tony's at 136. I go through the traps at 7,100+. I will have to look to see what this car goes through the traps at. Hopefully tomorrow with much better weather we will see some 10.0's. The bolt on car lays over a bit before the shift. So we are backing it up a hair.
