There are plent of #s for this combo all over the country... A fairly popular car was PSJs 3400lb Pinks Project with our H/C/I combo that was running high 10s with a **** converter in positive DA....
This post was to show people that the #s can be duplicated 4500 miles away from our shop... nothing more.

Come on Omar. Lets put the car on a dynojet and see what it does. I already told you I think your math is wrong but lets see. I will put mine back on as well for Q.A. on the # difference. Let me know and I will set it up.

That makes sense. The dyno that I run my car on reads 12% low on Sundays but only 8% low on the others days of the week. My last pulls were on Sunday so I can take my 513RWHP and add 12% so my car really made 583RWHP. Everyone knows that 3.90's cause a dyno to read lower so I'm going to abitrarily add 15RWHP so I'm now at 598RWHP, my air filter was a little dirty so I'm going to add 10RWHP and now I know for a FACT my car really makes 608RWHP.
This ricer math is FUN!!! WHEEEE!!

I think I know him. He has a black 02 Z right? We cruise with paradise cruisers sometimes. We are HIFBA (Hawaiian Islands F-Body Association). If we are talking about the same Ed, he is already on our local forum board.

Its not always about high horsepower cars falling flat on their face at the track, but whether the car is setup to display all that power at the track.
Speaking from my own experiences, I never intended to run my car in the 1/4. All I ever wanted to do was push the car to 200 mph. Car is lowered to eliminate as much drag as possible and increase stability. Functional Ram air courtesy of VaraRam. Then of course a killer h/c/i and exhaust courtesy of LG Motorsports. They did a killer job on making my car FAST, but not as quick as other cars because I didn't pay for more aggressive gearing, and kept the stiff z51 pkg. So if my 123.6 mph Trap speed into the wind doesn't speak to the potential of my FAST, not quick car then I'm sorry I let you down.
On another note, I've talked, emailed, and pm'd Ron from Vengeance Racing on numerous subjects. The man knows his stuff. Flat out. If he tells you from his vast experience what to expect from a car and its h/c etc etc combo then you can count on it.

in fact,someone in the future might get a car done at Vengence,and if it doesn't put down X amount of power on a dyno like Y's car did,then they might come on here blasting Vengence,even tho nothing is wrong..some dynos are stingy,or other factors come into play..dyno #s sell,but sometimes they cause headaches as well..

i see your point,and i'm not trying to question the power it made,or Ron's work..just that people get too caught up in dyno #s..

Also dyno numbers are a very good measure for how your vehicle responded to mods, etc etc.
