Final 427 tune

Its been a while since my cats blew out on the dyno, and I've had a partial tune for a while now. Since then I got the cats replaced and today brought it to Nick at Newtech Performance in Hayward and he did a great job with the tune. Had him tune it for maximum drivability instead of max power since the new owner wont be racing it.

Old numbers were 521/473.

On a conservative tune, Nick got it up to 543 rwhp / 505 rwtq!

Thanks Nick!

Here are the vids... All are recorded in 720p HD so be sure to click the quality button on the bottom right of the vid.

Vid 1 - Idle and loading onto dyno

Vid 2 - Pull with cutouts closed

Vid 3 - Pull with cutouts open and it makes 543/505 here. It was insanely loud and painful recording this in the shop. Nick even had earplugs in! It totally overpowered the microphone...
