Your factory 0-60 spec is 5.5 seconds, see below. If you're doing the run in sport or track mode and you definitely aren't spinning those all-season touring tires, the rest is probably due to the transmission. Again, the new flush, a new torque converter and a proper tune will most likely fix the shudder and make your launches faster.

Based off of this comment shouldn't I be needing a TQ replacement anyways since I've driven multiple months on a badly shuddering transmission?

If it were me i would go with the Circle D
