Default 680/700 aps tt, stock ls2

Went to the dyno tonight after adjusting actuators. I currently have the actuator springs "maxed out" and need to jump up to the next stiffness. Boost now levels off around 13.8-14.0. 2 bottles of torco in tank + methanol. Stock fuel system other than MSD boost a pump.

I'm starting to be limited by the stock motor. I'll probably swap valvesprings as I think the valves are floating in the higher rpm range. More boost will come with the addition of forged rods and pistons.

Just thought I'd share. I'll post up the dyno graph when I get the file sent over to me.

Congrats man. We have never been able to see that kind of boost/power on our 404 C6.
Is APS using larger turbos now than on the early C6 kits?

Nice numbers, we know the LS2's are good for 7 to the tires, now we just need to do some durability testing. The boost a pump will tax any thing you put in that tank though, so watch it. Good job!

Same 3076r turbos I believe.

As far as the MSD pump booster, so far so good. I have another fuel system in the works though, just in case

Kaboom

I'd back the boost down to 10 psi or so. Why push it? Do you already have a built shortblock to go in or something?

What fun would that be??

Building another shortblock, but not for a while as I'm getting parts together still.

I wish ya luck! I'm sure it will be more fun than if your car was down for 3 months while you were getting your new block assembled! 700hp or tq is WAYYYY to much for stock rods/ pistons in my experienced opinion. It will be fun....no doubt, but its just a matter if time until a rod gives.

Once again, who cares. I could have a new shortblock in a week or less if I felt like it.

I never said that my stock shortblock will live very long at this level.

If it blows up, it is just an excuse to grab some pistons/rods and crank the boost up more

I take it you broke one due to a hp failure your self???? Other wise you would not make such a statement?

We made 735whp and 745wtrq on a stock long block ls2 in a 05' GTO, it has made many WOT passes at a even higher power level now.

I think you could last for quite a few passes on 700hp/tq on stock ****.... and so what if it blows its ****** STOCK! Keep up the good work.
