Default TSP Forged LS3 Build-D1-Rick Crawford-Meth

Car is my 2008 Pontiac G8 GT.
L76 engine had a Livernois 1C cam and D1 procharger on 11.5lbs of boost making 613/543.

After 33000 miles of boost and many track runs, cylinder 6 piston lost a chunk.
Lashway Motorsports and Texas Speed got together with myself and made the swap happen.
Build:
LS3 Block 376ci 9.5:1 CR
Stock Crank
Wiseco Forged Dished Pistons
Callies H-Beam Rods/ARP Bolts
TSP Ported L92 Heads
221/232 625"610" 113+1 LSA
PRC 650 springs
Meiling High Volume Oil Pump
ARP Head Studs and Main Studs
D1 with 3.9 pulley
Coolingmist Methanol Injection
ID850 Injectors
Squash Twin DW300 Return Style Fuel Syetem
Solo 3in Exhaust System(Catless)

Car is running strong. Making about 12.5-13lbs of boost at 7000rpms.
Air fuel with 93 octane and meth is 10.2 wot.

still need to dyno and run it at the track
Any guesses on rwhp/rwtq?
Car is stock convertor and stock 2.92 rear gear.

Old L76 removed. Did great with 83000 hard miles! Dropped the cradle out, removed engine and 6l80 transmission, installed new engine and reinstalled cradle in 1day

Only street/track tuned it now with Rick Crawford.
We think without changing pulleys for more boost 700/640 area. But who knows,
should run 10.6 at 133 or so

How do you like the Solo exhaust? My dad has one on his Challenger and loves it.

I love the solo exhaust. Nice and deep cruising and stupid loud wot. Very high quality system.

I know they don't offer the procharger for the gxp because you will have I change out your water pump and upper radiator hose as your Inlet is on the driver side if I'm not mistaken
