Bolt on stock size tires and go back to the dyno. You will be surprised at the increase. The big tires are killing your numbers.

Also, are you still using the stock cam, or have you switched to a good boost cam?

Oh, and turn up the boost already! 8 psi without meth(with a good tune) is alot more fun than 5 psi. Then add the meth and go from there.

What about your fuel system?? Is that all stock besides the injectors. Maybe look into a bigger fuel pump set up

Maybe but those 35s are killing you. Crank the boost up to over 10psi with the meth and run some 456 gears
