Post your elevation, temp, fuel type, tire pressure, tire make/model. If you are going for the fastest 0-60 times all those factors will come into play. Since you are in an auto the time is more a product of your grip which is dependent on the surface (street...cold/warm?) your tire temps...street tire? Drag radial? tire pressure, temp...etc...

If you are spinning you are obviously losing time so before you throw in the towel try noting down your parameters first. Also, you are better off going to a track which will hopefully have some rubber laid down and have some temp as well. Cooler temps mean harder rubber which means that you will spin. Of course, if you are doing this on street tires which are made for longer wear hence, harder compounds you will end up spinning and again...your times will not be very good.

Put some drag radials, warm them up, note the track, time, temp, humidity, and post up some times before/after your mods.

Good luck!
