Adding the 100 shot and cooling the FMIC on the last 2 pulls it made 880 RWHP also spinning the tires/clutch. So with a good dual-disc and some traction it should be in the 4 digits...Not bad for a true "street" car with A/C that I can drive anywhere I wanna go...
Congrats DJ & it's time for a Textralia Clutch buddy

Is 650 RWHP @ 3500rpms or 750 RWHP @ 4200rpms a usable powerband?
