what's everyone doing to be in the 11.50-10.80 range?

[TT/Ameasap]

Its a combination of many parts including skill of driver and tuning. Not one or three parts are going to get to those ET's.
1. Find a mentor that has good success with these cars and talk on the phone...Not Internet BS.
2. Learn to tune your car and understand what it likes
3. Take baby steps at turning it up
4. Look at the whole picture when deciding on parts
5. Learn different techniques of driving/launching these cars

I need the recipe...

For the OP, I went 11.3 at 120MPH at 26PSI with a pretty simple combo. Nothing crazy. I am hoping to break into the 10s this year with some changes.

My combo: Stock short block/ Cam, 6176E Turbo, As cast GN1 heads, matched ports to GN1s on intake, 3" THDP, Stretch SLIC, Methanol, 60lb Injectors, Walbro 340lph pump (hotwired), 9x11 Stall converter and built trans. For the suspension I have air bags in the rear springs, stock sway bar. Adjustable upper control arms and lower control arms. My best time was on a Nitto NT555r which produced a 1.72 60-foot.

I think this could easily be done on stock heads, but with a little more boost. Good luck! You can feel free to PM me any questions.

What are you using to tune the car?
