Default New #s Still have some issues!

"we have to make a new elbow to the Tb,the Hobb switch is not working,and we lost the blower belt on the last run

boost was 20 psi at 6800

no more passes today

830 rwhp " - Speed inc

This pass was made thru my stock Cat back exst. I have the elec. cutout and next week we will make some more passes with the issues handled and thru open headers :-)

This is also with a tuned stock PCM. The DFI goes in once the bugs are worked out.

Any new guesses?

Im guessing there was belt slipage to. They broke a belt.

Im wondering what the stock SS cat back is robbing? I wonder what the same pass would have been with the dump open!

It looks like I will at least hit my 850 rwhp goal if not surpass it! The streets of Houston will be safe no more Just cant wait to rape my first KB Cobra.

Nice numbers! I feel so out of place in the FI section. A lot of the memeber make at LEAST twice the power I do.

That will change soon enough though

All custom brackets/FMIC/tubing ect... the pulleys are 10 rib from ASP.

Call SPEED INC. They did all the work! It took forever but its well worth the wait.

Just never got around to doing it. I dont see how it would rob me any power with the dump open. Its like open headers that way.

It just shows that a cat back on a SS or WS6 can be the last thing you do. Think about how many other things you can do for500-700 bucks!
