Did you notice much difference with the gear change? I'm currently running 3.50's with the same converter.

well in daily driving yes. 3.55 gives better city mileage...worse highway......3.08 does just the opposite. At the track I noticed no difference but I am sure if you are more track oriented than street you would probably want the 3.55

You must run that car on fairy dust to get almost 800 hp with only 9lb. Nice runs.

Considering Appx. 20-25%drivetrain loss,600-650rwhp is very doable with 9psi.

You think the high numbers with low amounts of boost is because of your higher compression?

i honestly dont know. I wish someone knew. You are probably right about the compression. It SHOULD make more N/A with the compression so you get more hp before the boost is ever factored in. A Ford mag already showed where higher compression gives more hp per psi as well.
