How much do those nice looking bigass 19" rear wheels weigh?
I'll bet your losing a few ponies there just from the rotational mass!
Enjoy the new power and start saving for a new set of tires, current rubber won't last long!

Not sure about any records Randy, I feel my numbers are just about average for the setup I have. X1 cam isn't really what I'd call a baby cam, but it does idle/drive damn sweet after custom tuning. It sort of ran like crap before Jayson tuned it on the dyno, I was worried there for a little while. lol

They can make 2e heads out of stock 5.7L, 5.3L, 6.0L, or LS6 castings. The 2E just describes the level of upgrades. 2E heads use stock valve seats, 2R heads use larger custom valve seats and larger valves.
Mine are standard LS1 5.7L castings.

Mine did not do quite so well. I am an A4 with Jet hot headers and catted Y. I have all the normal boltons with the MTI TB and a SS4000. I did dyno on 17X11 wheels.
X1 on 112 and 5.7 2e heads
405rwhp/365
I will post my dyno when I get to a scanner. Any ideas why I am so much lower? I feel like it might be the jet hot cats but Im not sure.

Josh is correct, don't believe all the hype you see on the net. Most A4 cars rarely see over 400 rwhp, especially thru cats, on MTI's dynojet. All of those 10-second heads/cam MTI A4 cars are making about the same power (or less) than you are. The higher dynoing A4s are still running the stock converter most of the time.
