I think you might be looking at it a little too hard. You know my car and my D1 procharged car went 10.5@136 with a 10 bolt and no suspension work. Now I am out in the heat of the summer working on getting the new suspension set up and not running as fast. I think a FI car does worse in the heat than a NA car does. Also my car is heavy. last year my car weighed 3750 with me in it. I got is down to 3600 this year but that still is really heavy.

But like most people have Said FI cars are VERY streetable do very well at the track for what they weigh.
