Drove it to the grocery store today just to make sure everything was going to be ok to limp it to HPP tomorrow. Everything seems fine. It's definitely rich right now. On decel it gets into the 10's on the Aeroforce gauge. Cruising is around 14. It's definitely not optimum, but should be ok limping to the dyno tomorrow.

Dude that's awesome! I'd love to do the same to mine but I'm going to try and hold off until the factory warranty is done before I do anything on mine. Great work though, looking forward to seeing what it puts down!

I'll post the graph when HPP emails it to me, but the final result was ~600/500 on a 3.75" pulley. Boost would flash to 8 then climb to around 11. Manny was cutting the runs off at 7000 and kept it pretty conservative. I think it would have made at least 25 more if he took it to 7500. Should be fun. I've got to wire up the aeroforce map sensor so I can see boost. I rigged up a mechanical gauge just for the dyno. Overall, I'm pretty happy with it. I have to keep reminding myself that these numbers are through an auto, not a manual like most others I see. I got to wrench on the car a little more than I planned on since we changed to a different plug after we got to 560rwhp. We went a little colder and less gap. I can't wait to get it to the track to see how it does. Honestly, it doesn't feel THAT fast to me, but I know it makes 225rwhp more now than it did when it ran 12.3's, so I'd have to think it should fly at the track. We'll see!

Your car will be fun to drive and yeah shutting it down at 7k took away some power. You would had been well above 600 rwhp if rev to 7500-7700.

Which is great for a track car taking a lot of driver error out of the equation.

There is several auto guys out there making less than 600rw but still running very low 10's. With the auto is won't shock the tires as much and won't feel as violent/fast, but it's no doubt going to be fast and more consistant! Congrats, Doug!
