**** i know how to do it , dual fart bombs and a few stickers will bring it right up .
If i were you i wouldnt be so concerned about hp , use the track times and hp to figure things out . I dont trust dynos much except for before and afters , they vary too much .

My car made 402rwhp with a cam + bolt ons, on the stock ls1 intake. I'm sure if I had a TREX cam with a ported FAST setup I could hit close to 450 ( MAYBE ) on a high reading dyno.

You can get that car in the 11's without head work, but you probably will need a cam. Your first step is going to be traction...followed by a stronger rearend and suspension to put the power down.
110mph is good for a LOW 12 second pass if the mph you already achieved isn't artificially inflated from ridiculous tire spin.
With the right cam, you'll pick up enough power that given a real 60' (not the 2.3 I'm guessing you cut now, more like a 1.7-1.8) you'll be able to run 11.7-11.9. I've seen a 12.0 with a 110 mph trap from a car that was optimized for the 1/4 mile...but a 12.2-12.3 @110 is more realistic. Upgrade from there and hook it up.

Hi,your build is probably 325/340 rwh. We all want big numbers on the dyno. It cost $$$$$ to run 11.0 without bottle feeding. If your vehicle is nice as you quote on your question??????? Drive and enjoy.... Make people think you are 11.0
and yield not to temptation. My car looks stealth but never goes to the track.
Good luck and have a blessed weekend.......jim
