Nice setup. You can easilly push the stock motor to 600 rwhp safely. Just finished a vette with blower/ cam that made 650hp/540tq. As for tuning, ESP does all kinds of cars, that's the problem , not LSx specific so they lack the knowledge. If there is a problem we are here. Hopefully it's close enough so you don't have to pay twice.

yah i will let u know they are just down the road from me and before i was on the forum they started the work. maybe after they are done ill bring it up to your place and have you check it out but as for theyre work i have been checking on it everyday and have had no complaints they have been very careful with my car. is 600 safe though i have heard that there is some weak points in the motor and im already well over 15k invested in everything i just wouldnt want to blow up motor cause i dont have many funds left after this how much do you charge to tune??? let me know

With a proper tune and good maintenance I wouldn't hesitate to push it to 600rwhp. I'd be more worried about the trans than anything.

Should be a nice setup with lotsa power.
I've been to ESP a couple times, met up w/ friends for a dyno day on occasion. I've heard good and bad about them, so I really don't have much to comment on that. They did do a cool ls miata swap.

Anyways for big stuff there is only one guy who touches my car

I'll have to keep my eyes open for you on thestreet since we are close, what color is your car? If you get it all buttoned up a few of us might caravan down to slowhawks dyno day this month, if your interested.
