35-inch tires and 0-60

This may sound rediculous and I'm not usually into the numbers but I'm trying to keep track of the effectiveness of the mods I've done and have already dropped the ball. I never got stock 0-60 times, nor stock engine with the lift and 35's, nor with gears or +Xcal. So now I've got it all lifted, tuned, geared (4.56), air intake (JLT) and cat back (Magnaflow). So today I decided to do a half *** attempt at timing my 0-60. Using my watch (second hand timer....sweet) I floor it and click the timer simultaneous. At 60 click it again and 10 seconds (I didn't cheat it either). I am running 87 octane tune from SCT which is supposed to be customized for the JLT CAI and Xcal. I noticed a good power increase when I got the tuner but the CAI and cat back I didn't notice yet. I just got the CAI and cat back this morning and today has been another hot humid one in Sfla and maybe the throaty exhaust is playing tricks on me or maybe I'm already used to the extra power but it didn't feel any stronger than before. I'll have to give it a few days. I think I'm gonna have the shop that has done most of my stuff take a look at the tunes again b/c when I left it felt stronger then I re-caled because the speedo was off as they forgot to change the tire size and then it felt weaker. Maybe I screwed up something when I re-flashed it as I magically can mess up any computer. Anyway any of you guys running similar set ups have 0-60 times for me to compare? I'd like to get the most I can out of this. Possibly the set up I have now should run the 93 octane and just suck up the extra gas cost to get the most out of it?

Thats very good, the best time I got was I think 10.5 with only an edge and exhaust.

Weazel that is a great time and kind of what I was hoping for....... no way am I making up 2.5 seconds with headers. I may have them dyno mine and see what it's laying down. I'm thinking it should be near 260 rw with those tires.
