Finally, 700+ rwhp stock LS2 = BOOM
It finally let go...same old story, too much timing. 14 psi, completely stock LS2 down to the valvesprings. No idea on power but on 13 psi and less timing it was around 680 rwhp 700 tq. Too many 4th and 5th gear highway pulls to count (motor let go on highway 5th gear pull). Car has been daily driven for the past month at 12-14 psi (about 1500 hard street miles). APS TT system.
If anybody out there has a stock LS2 shortblock they would like to sell, please PM me. Time to do forged rods/pistons....

Keep boost the same, take like 4 degrees off the timing.
OR
Keep the boost the same, take 2 degrees off the timing... and then don't do anymore 5th gear pulls! Any gear under a 1:1 ratio is going to make your engine work a shitton harder which obviously builds up a lot of heat and starts detonating like it's cool.
Nice numbers though!
