Seems like a lot of the "fast Vette" guys never run at the track. Seems like they stick to dyno drag racing.

Am I missing something??? I see 715 RWHP on the dyno graph. So I assume he's "interpolating" that the motor must make around 850 HP. I don't think he can claim anything more than what the paper says. Nicely put together video though. I wish I had the time to do something like that.

I see all the S91 guys not really pushing that turbo at all. I believe thats the highest HP combo I've seen out of an S91 yet. The other was at 800 and change.

Why is no one putting one up to the 28-30 psi that thing should be running at? I mean c'mon guys...lets at least see one hit low 20's.

Kyle went to 25-26psi with his S88......hit 1130+rwhp I believe with his. Also we have a few customers running some big boost #'s with them, but most are Ford guys. Most of the LSX crowd is a bit gun shy.....lots of money going into some of these setups.
