Well... the verdict is in.
It took 4 pulls to make it happen, but I was able to hit the mark! I am working on making a video of the pulls, but I figured I would go ahead and post the graph. Best pull was 713 RWHP and 707 RWTQ. She made in the 680 range with a pretty tame, everyday driving tune.... but when we leaned on it I must say the ol' girl responded pretty well. Thanks for keeping your fingers crossed for me, I have blown a car up on a chassis dyno before, so to say I was a little nervous would be a HUGE understatement lol!!
I will post the videos when I get them uploaded.

Thanks guys! This has been about a 3 month project from start to finish. Now that I have the dyno behind me, I will probably pulley it down to 15-16lbs of boost ( as opposed to the 20psi it made today) and put the 91 octane tune back in for everyday cruising. Probably be the best bet for longevity purposes. Only time I will have it tuned on "kill" mode will be at the strip.
