Yep, tons of tq so far. Put a hitch on it and tow a trailor lol.

I do wonder what the spool would be like with a 85mm though.

Awesome numbers. Is this just straight pump gas with no meth? I can't wait to see what 18psi does. A vid would be awesome too.

Yes, you should hear what it sounds like from my office! The windows start shaking at about midway through the run. Bob

No sir, 100% 93 octane dinosaurs Anything over 14psi will be using race fuel (vp c16).

That's great number, 1000+RWHP.

Congrats to both the owner and EPP. Also, goes for OFI & FI for turbo kit and S91.

Awesome numbers. I can only hope mine makes close to them. Is 200hp a normal rise for 7psi? I was expecting more. I was guessing 900 at 18psi after yesterdays numbers.

Yes...that is normal. As you start reaching the upper end of compressor wheel flow each psi increase will result in less HP gained.

I think were right on as far as power output, Chris with the c5 vette (91mm) made i think 725 or so @ 14psi. A few ponys each way is variance so were looking good.

I would like to thank OFI for a kickass kit, not much modding for it to work right. It was not designed around a 4l80e so were thankful it did not take alot of modding to fit.

Thanks to FI as well, having a quick turn-around time when we were having turbo issues, and also a 6mm upgrade

Time for a cage and new tires Chris, also a ams boost controller / transbrake!

205cc heads to boot! Chris, you really should make the cage the first item so you can run the car at the track without getting kicked out. Bob
