Default got a good run today with the lt1 twin turbo and need imput please

ok today i finally got the car running top knotch. we only hit 10 psi we never cam off of the spring. but it laid down 720tq and 450 hp max

the 720 tq was only at 2700 rpm
the 450 hp was only at 4500 rpm

and we never lost boost until 7200 rpm when it hit the rev limiter

as soon as we hit the 720 tq it started to drop as the rpms went up.
and at 4500 to 5500 rpm we could not get any more hp after that. so we think the converter is slipping bad. and at 7200 rpms we are losing about a 1000rpm from hp tuners to the dyno.


and i drove it on the street after it was done and the thing was so fast i could barley hold it down even after 4500 rpms in middle to top of 3rd gear the front end started to lift and the *** started to float.

so how can a slipping converter pull hard after the 4500 rpm. and on the street it felt like it got faster and faster after 4500 rpms

any input

here is a link to the dyno pull. the pull went to 7200 rpm and the gragh only shows 4500 rpm ( its the only one i can get right now the paper gragh is to tiny to get a good pic of.

Look at the graph by mph for your answer. Obviously rpm pickup was broken
