Talked to him today and it looks like we're getting close. He started from scratch and it's idling more normally, revving free like it should, and the miss seems to be gone as well. The initial numbers, on a conservative tune, are 550 hp and 515 torque. Much more inline with what the car should actually be making, given the fact that I'm still running the base pulley and stock throttle body.

So you lost about 100whp by switching to a better tune? Was the 625 supposedly on a conservative tune as well?

The 625 was a "Glory" run, done I'm sure completely for my benefit that day at the shop. It was loaded with extra timing and actually ran like shit. The tune I drove out on was closer to 575 and it was a bit more conservative. It drove pretty decent too. Looking back at it now, if the car can run 10.80's at 575, and I can have it driveable at that power level, I think I can live with that.

Definitely. I would just think that if 625 was attainable on a crappy tune that, a good conservative tune could yield 600 easy. But you would know better than I. You're in the 10s already and I am still bone stock lol.

If we can get 600 and still be daily driveable, believe me, we will! I"m just saying I'll be happy with 575. Hell, after all the crap I've gone through, I'd be happy with 550! LOL!

Trust me, with 575 to the wheels you have plenty to brag about.
