Custom Dyno Tune and My saleen: Dyno Numbers Attached
First and foremost....Justin at VMP TUNING freaking rocks......I brought my car into him today and the last dyno run I had it was getting a tad over 369 RWHP and 372 torque. Now there are questions that the other guy did not even dyno my car right...and that may be so. BUt I had my new Custom tune by Justin at VMPTUNING and all I can say is wow....Now I am at 422.56RWHP and 416.9 Torque....pretty dang sweet,,,,The only drawback we see was that with a torque converter I would get higher numbers but as he noticed it was slipping slightly in 4th at 4200RPM...otherwise I would be higher...but 422 is nothing to sneeze at..More importantly my assometer tells me YEE HA.....here it is: I will also post in the RWHP Dyno sheet forum ....This power is awesome..oh yeah i was maxing at 8.5 lbs of boost..avvg 7.5-8

Sounds like you might want to get the converter replaced before you do any damage to the tranny. From what I've read, those that have blown their tranny, the problems were caused by the converter taking a dump first.

Nice numbers, and I cannot agree more about the torque converter. I have had my Whipple on since January. The transmission tune has been good onthe street and at the strip but there are times that you can feel that the torque converter does not know how to handle the additional torque the engine is making. My best times at the track to date have been a 12.1 et, @ 116 MPH with a 1.76 Sixty Ft.
I have been researching torque converters for about a month now. From all I have read on the internet and with talking withtransmission people about it, the consensus is, DO NOT go cheap. (TCI)
I have ordered mine from Precision Industries, The Stallion multi disk with a 3000 stall. The case is made fromone piece billet steel and it has a two year warranty. http://www.converter.com/index.htm
They claim it should lower my ET's by about 4-5 tenths and my 60' by .15. We will see..
Anyway, good luck and welcome to the Supercharged Family

The automatic convertors will unlock in 4th gear at approx. 125mph.
The PCM can be programmed to lock the converter to prevent this from happening.
Mine use to do that until I got the Automatic Transmission Tune from Doug at BC.

Very, verynice numbers. Your air/fuel ratio looks great too, as it safely stays under 12.0 over the entire spectrum. That is absolutely key to ensuring your engine doesn't blow up on you down the road...
