On that 7.3?
Fuel pressure might be a little low? I'd bump it up near 65 or higher, unless you tried that and it likes that pressure. Stock injectors and canned tunes I assume?

Oh ok, sig said 55.
Not sure what else to suggest. Maybe the spool up time is slow cause of the bigger exhaust housing?

Sounds about right to me. Maybe you should have been a touch faster. But the amount of fuel you had in the tank, humidity, track conditions, how much boost you was launching at, all have a role. I would think your setup should be in the 9.7-9.8 range. My buddies 02 7.3 CCSB on stock tires and wheels runs consistent 10 flats. He broke a 9.98 once. It is DP 5 position tuner, intake, 4 inch exhaust, shimmed fuel pressure spring. And that was launching in 4 high as hard as he could get it to spool every time.
