Find another dyno operator who knows what they are doing. I had one guy in a dingy garage tell me my 08 had 236. The same day a well-trained operator at another facility with the same equipment consistently got an average of 283 on three runs.

I would think with 6000 BHP you would trap faster than 120, I'd go as far as to say the car would be topped out in your 60ft.

TORCO or bust

Actually, some stuff called "The Green Trail: Race fuel accelerator".. same as TORCO.

I used the stuff to boost it up to 93 octane just to see if it made a difference.. surprisingly so, it did! With a new tune, it felt like I gained a ton of power...

back to crap 90 octane for now.. that stuff will turn your motor friggin' orange with deposits..
