At the time I couldn't figure out how to use my boost controller and was running 7lbs, I'd guess around 500rwhp. With 9:1 compression I'm hoping to run 16-18lbs. Recently I also bought some stock gears since I'm still running 3.73s. So hopefully with the changes it will run strong but more importantly, hold together.

Yeah I bet it will fly now. I'm like you on my hp I need it to hold together also. So when I'm done I should be around 500 rwhp and still be dependable. That is my goal

I'm down for a cuise. We need to have a local meet for us. Don't know if we can stay at the location but I think a good central spot for us locals is the kroger on 146 and fairmont. Right in between baytown to pasadena. What y'all think maybe a Friday or sat night.
