Honestly if you're going 121-123 mph, that car should already be in the 10's. That's easy 10.80's with a decent short time. That tells me that your short time is lacking and most likely the biggest reason why you're getting by with a mechanical pump at that HP level. Once you get that thing to launch like it should I think you'll quickly find out why I, Highway, and Cliff are telling everyone mechanical pumps are going to be an issue, and Cliff explained it pretty well in his recent post so there is no reason to rehash that.

If it makes ya feel better, you already have a 10 second car, ya just gotta work on that 60 foot.
