As for the numbers, Mike left a lot of timing out of the car, but its making (DJ numbers):

461 rwhp / 565 rwtq

The tune, is super super safe. I wanted Mike to add timing, but now thinking we best not till we shake it down a few times at the track. Besides, I'm tired of breaking the damn thing, something safe works for me...till I forge the bottom end. And also, I don't have a dyno sheet. I haven't had a dyno sheet printed out since I was 11 psi I think. I just have him tune it, and then take it to the track and look at the ET and MPH.

Sounds good. I am SO STOKED about seeing you and Stella at the track. Hope theydo a good job prepping thetrack! My new SPEC2 clutch and Fidanza alum flywheel should be well broken in by Wednesday, so I'd like to see my 60's in the 1.8xx range.

Old Dominion Wednesday night man. I'm hoping you can cut high 1.7's on your new setup. May take some time to dial in those shocks. Looking forward to meeting up and racing!
