Haha, there's a dyno vid on one of the last pages of my build thread. Build thread link is on the first page of this thread. It put down 616rwhp @10psi going lean, letting out early. What do you have?

Haha ill have no part in those all wheel drive vehicles lol id like to get 800rwhp out of the camaro @ about 15-17 Psi. The turbos good for 1200fwhp but keeping the heads down will definitely be an issue if I tried that. I'm from Pennsylvania, drove the car 200 miles to Maryland and 200 miles back. Averaged 19 MPG with a carburetor and 6.6l engine not bad lol

Haha definitely took some research and trial and error but the carb works excellent. You just don't get the fuel economy, and cold starting like you do with fi, but it works great. I also like the old school new school theme I got going. Ls powered, turbo, carbureted, 80s camaro. Mullet and skinny jeans not included haha.
