stock 5.3 183k + miles , straight out of junk yard , 26psi out of t4 76mm turbo, runs strong, oil looks good has made about 75 + 1/4 mile runs and i damaged a lifter during lsx this year. according to the weight / 1/4 mile time it made about 625hp. i think the 6600 rev limiter is what tanked the stock lifters.

InconTT
initial psi 6-7 and 450-500 rwhp and at 9psi/550rwhp since about 20k miles.
initial install 7K miles on car
Current Mileage 49,500 = 42500
on the 9psi tune it was overly safe, 11.5:1 a/f and around 16* timing at peak tq, and up to maybe 19-20 by redline. leaned it out to 12.5:1 on the dyno and gained no power, so we set it back.
Motor didn't break per se. Tore it apart to look for an engine tick; and found that I had an improperly heat treated cam that has a sliver of the lobe peel off the edge.
additional mods to motor were good pushrods and springs.

-2001 Camaro
-APS Twin Turbo (Base kit)
-11psi / 630rwhp 640rwtq
-70k miles when installed
-78k miles current
Daily drive on 6psi but it sees 11psi about once a week for a quick thrill. Have made a dozen or so track passes on high boost, runs perfect. CMS SD tuning got me dialed in!

That's sick power from a stock lower end. Have you had alcohol injection from the very beginning? Pretty sure if I had injection my stock motor would still be around. Many ***** out quarter miles passes with 10.1:1 compression, 10 psi boost, and 100 degree heat ain't kind on a motor.
Any track times?
