The install went really well for me. I installed it all by myself in the driveway. Tuned it myself too.
My AFR is 11.3-11.7 and my timing is ~14* Made 437rwhp with no effort. When the Meth kit goes on the timing will go up, and I will get a pulley to make more than the 8psi I have right now. Is it crazy to want 500rwhp? LOL! Is it?

I am not planning on running N20 with the setup, but I am too lazy to uninstall it.

500 hp might not be track able on a road course. I will get my final tuning after when the weather warms up. I might get the timing cut back some as well. I need to know how it reacts on the track. Darn winter at least we can ski
I'm at 17* a/f is below 12 not sure what the average is I would say around 11.8

Sunny weather dry roads!
Finally got to take the car out today sunny dry weather about -8 Celsius.
Holly Crap!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sideways!!!!!!!!!!
No traction!!!!!!!!
Lots of sand on the road in places and very cold asphalt.
I didn't even get it over 5000 rpm. When the boost did kick in It did widen my eye's a little.
Yup definitely going to get 18" rims and wider tires!!!
Summer is going to be fun!
Cheers

I'm running 275 Nitto Drag Radials in the back and they are barking all the way into thrid gear. The entire 2nd gear you can just hear them barely holding on. I don't think street tires are going to hold to this brutality of the V-3. And power is so linear it's incredible. The more rpms you have the more power you make it just keeps getting faster and faster.
With your roads being so cold and inclimate you may want to be careful, the S/C is like a lightpole magnet.
