Are you serious, lol. That is awesome. How much boost, timing, fuel, meth, nitrous etc. I am getting very close to firing mine up. With those kind of numbers and some traction you should be able to get a low-mid nine out of it.

I asked VS racing this same question and they said the magnum t76 with a Q trim wheel is good for another 100rwhp or so over the GT45.

Graph on boost only, by rpm if possible. Just trying to get an idea of where power comes in and falls off.

very tricky since my converter hits 3k, then boost comes in and it goes up to about 5k and sits till the tires catch up.

it makes power all the way to 6700

Hmm, hoping mine does better with the 243s, I thought I read somewhere where a guy was seeing 10psi at 3000rpm. Good to hear it carries out to 6700. Either way I am excited to get this going. Thanks for answering all my questions.

I know. Different compression from 1 bank to the other. One side lower comp but better flow, and one side with higher comp and less flow. It works though.
