Ok everyone the car made a best pull of 705 rwhp at 10 lbs of boost. I will be ordering the 15 and 20 lbs pulleys from bob this winter and making some changes to the trans. because the converter is very loose for street driving.

Those are nice numbers for 10 lbs! That thing will go crazy when you turn that dude up.

The heads are from Thunder Racing but have been reworked by Roush Motorsports.

The Motor is at 9.3 to 1.

I know there is a lot more in the car we just ran out of time with the tune. I am in Michigan so weather plays a big role.

Dude, pat yourself on the back that is nice for 10lbs, I am hoping to make that on 13lbs. You think the 3600 is too loose? I have a 3600 that will be going in mine and hope I don't have the same problem. Does it always sit on the converter cruising till it locks up or you get on it?

Tuner in Michigan is Donny Walsh! He is more then some but will spend the time to make sure it is safe and streetable.

Going to 15 Lbs of boost in a week or two when I get the trans back in the car and some minor wiring fixed. SHould be just over 800 rwhp.

1) Walsh Motorsports and he owns D&D Performance out of Wixom Michigan
2) I have 100 miles on it
3) Gears are 3/73 and the converter is a Yank Pro 3600

I will turn up the boost after some more miles and some fine tuning of the trans
