Winters... Graph doesnt look right to me. You might be getting some valve float. You lose power really quick after 5800rpms and the air fuel looks good and the boost is not falling off!
As I have offered time and time again... Let me take a look at the car.

It was the cats. Completely melted and had chunks in them. New stock cats are back on the car.
Stripped the bottom of the meth motor when putting on the fender tonight. Got the clutch knocked out today, though.
New stock cats are back on the car. I make about 65-70hp more than you, but you make 120 more tq than me. You can run 11.0-11.2 with that car if you get a 1.6 60ft. Larry's bolt on ls3, stock auto probably makes 70hp less than you and runs 11.30's on drag radials.
I have the stock SC tune going back in the car tomorrow. Makes 570hp. Won't be running any meth since I don't have a motor.
Bill Winters, got new valvesprings since I want to add a custom baby cam or ZR1 cam. Cats looked horrible. I'll ask Stephen more about the tune tomorrow. He is doing a new tune for me for the track tomorrow night, and will retune next week with meth. Yeah, he is conservative on the tune. I do know that was on the high end of the A/F for what he likes in cars that people use at the track.
Bruce, thanks for calling out the problem without even seeing the car. We found the problem quickly today when we started to take it apart. We will now know if there is valvefloat as well when we strap it back down tomorrow. Stephen is doing a great job and we stayed till 10:30 tonight putting the whole car back together.
Mike, thanks for the offer! Always tell people that I have never had a bad experience with your shop. My shop is next door and I am pleased with everything they have done for me.
It will go deep 10's when I get more seat time and now I have a clutch that I don't have to launch off of idle. 131mph means that it's not the car, the driver and clutch. One has been replaced, the other is getting more time This will be the first time I get to launch the car.
i thought you made way more power than mine. I'm sure you do without cats and stuff. now i just need to run your #'s lol

If your pulling 131 mph trap speeds we will need to line them up tomorrow. That's about what my car does should be a good run. I'll be out there about 6. Look me up I'll be in the red C6 with CCW's.

What do you run along with the dragpack? My car is a stock ls3 with 3.8 vortech SC and mufflers. Non z51 gearing, and drag radials.
