Everything aligns...

Weight? all girls lie, so do shops! You say 3800, he says 3700. I smell a few hundred less, more like 3500 or lessSorry going to need that DOT scale slip or the vid of 350lb fat man driving down the strip.
The screen shot of the dyno doesn't show anything, no CF, if its used or not, which one, weather measurements.

This doesnt change the basics or the fact SAE is an over-inflated number on a turbo w/wastegate.
Im not sure if what I said made sense, it is what it is...

You guys don't see that the "faster" naturally aspirated car is slower than the turbocharged car at altitude? The principle applies if you're running 9's or 14's. Note: I'm not implying that all turbo cars are faster than all N/A cars when at high altitude, I'm just saying that the correction factors aren't the same.

Maybe this will help? http://www.6speedonline.com/forums/9...incorrect.html

BOV skullies. lol. That would be cool.

I dont see any cooling issues.

Optional 16925 Derale 2150cfm pusher fan (23A each) or two up front. These cars have 60Amp available for fans vs Fbody and others that only have 40A circuits.
