Default ITS DONE, AND ITS A BEAST! Now with video!

So I got my car back from JPC today and I couldn't be happier. I put a huge dent in my wallet but it was well worth it. Final dyno numbers before tuning it down a bit were: 560 rwhp and 500 rwtq at 16 lbs of boost on pump gas. I can't wait to hit the track here in a week or so and see what I can do even though it took the entire ride back to DC to get used to the new clutch, it was way different. I'm sure I'll be able to pull off some good times but my car is in need of some serious suspension upgrades before it'll be at its full potential.

Congrats! Great numbers sounds like one hell of a ride.

Dam thats pretty cool!!! How is the traction with 560 at the wheels? How does it feel compared to 450 at the wheels? Whats your suspension and tire setup to handle the power? I'm really curious being as this is my next step! I was gonna say Paxtons are the ****!!! but you have a vortech, pretty much the same thing though LOL...Congrats!!

I can tell you from experience, the difference between 450 and 550 almost feels like the difference between a mustang gt and then adding that blower on to make it 450 the first time, the difference is huge to be honest.
