Certainly you should be able to get into the 12s with your setup. It will take seat time and lots of practice with that clutch. You will need to raise the launch rpm and slip the clutch enough so as not to spin. That will greatly improve your 60' and in turn, your ET.
Get back out and try some more.
Good luck.

Your time looks right based on your 60ft, I'd say the main thing you have to worry about is your mph, your car isn't making the power it should be.
My 60ft is very similar to yours, but all I have is a catback exhaust. Just work on your launch and get it tuned, your issue is a lack of horsepower mainly.
This was my time...
2.196 - 60ft
5.853
8.713 - 1/8th
86.47mph
11.148
13.185 - 1/4th
111.23mph

14.8-15 is LEAN... i DEFF would not beat on it if its reading that lean. RT also means NOTHING when drag racing.
