"Feels fast" is a frame of mind, especially when you've been beat.
Has the car lost power? Do you have accurate info to confirm this, like timeslip or Gtech, etc?
My "guess" is you should be in the 260-270 Hp/350tq range with your cam, intake and exhaust, good for low 14's all the way to mid 13's depending on traction, suspension and how you drive.

my torque curve was really changed when i put that cam in it too. that might be part of it.
