Default New dyno number

517rwhp / 520rwtq

Still running on the stock motor, minus the FI stuff of course. Almost 60k miles on the car still running strong as hell! Big thanks to Drew and Shaun at AED and Tony Gonyon at tuners inc for making it happen. 10 second pass here I come!

Jeez, that's awesome!
What's that feel like getting on it?

I'd start saving up now for a aluminator, 6 speed swap, and clutch/driveshaft upgrade...at those power levels it's not IF but WHEN stock GT parts will blow up from all the information people provide on these forums.

That's awesome man. I admire guys who push the envelope and save a little cash. I'm one of them!

Lean on it and see what it'll take!!!

Right!

To make those numbers on non-forged pistons and on the stock fake-forged sintered crap conrods is a guaranty for a trip down the road for a dead block.

Granted even fully forged blocks blow too but at least a fully forged block removes you from the guaranty of a dead engine.

I wonder what kind of boost he is running? Especially at the RPM bandwidths.

I'm not worried about it going KABOOM, the tune is actually safe we could have pushed it more, but if it happens it happens.

10psi before LT's the boost dropped about 1lb after installing the LTs.

Feels awesome, especially with the bigs and littles on it, pulling the front tire on launch makes for a fun 60ft.
