Interesting... the red font at the bottom underrates the power we saw from the prototype production-ready kit (prior to you guys tuning it for more power). It was around 450 WHP at that time... this ad says it adds 150 WHP, which means that it would be ~240 + 150 = 390 WHP... Shucks, the other 60 WHP disappeared

They probally not using wheel HP 303 + 150 hp is 450. Since 450hp is what they put down on the dyno. Assuming most of use are around the 240-250whp. Thats a 200 WHP gain. Figure 20% drivetrain loss at 450 the car would be making 540 Crank HP. pretty good. If they really did get it to put down 505whp it would be 606 crank HP

The kit in stock form will give an extra 150hp, however you want to spin it.
With the 8psi you'll get about 450hp at the crank, maybe more but these are conservative numbers. We got 505whp at 12PSI but we did a LOT of tinkering etc.
I'm anxious to see what the guys who got the turbo get when they dyno.

I'm just sad about the 60 HP missing from the early CT prototypes... I like every last drop of HP 
It costs the same for 60 HP less!!! Last edited by ZyroXZ2; Mar 18, 2009 at 05:19 PM. Reason: Screwed up a smiley...

The Gen IV LS block can handle a lot of power. The LS2, the other Gen IV engine, handles being blown without any problems. I'm not sure how high up the Vette or GTO guys have had to go to blow their LS2s up, but I'm pretty we'll burn up the front wheels and trans long before we hit that point.
