Unfortunately not really. My motor blew when I was running 362rwhp and 427rwtq at 5000rpms on the dyno for a baseline to see what the KB tune did. However, I've seen guys with a very similar setup, to what was once my car in working form with stock internals, run 11.8s-12.0s with the KB at 9psi.

Bro what did you end up finding when you peaked inside your cylinders? Have you disassembled the shortblock yet? Is there cylinder head damage, etc?

I've had exams all these past two weeks I'm done this friday, so I'll update on that tear-down thread on here and let you know how it goes!.. but judging from looking into the heads with a flashlight.. they're pretty fried. Lots of metal bits that shouldn't be there...

Well I've decided to get my KB on by the end of May so here goes nothing please hold up for me until I get the cashola for an MMR 600 lol. We'll see! Already got a race with a C6 vette lined up Also a few bike races most likely going to be in the vid......may not be much racing involved in that one though as I should be thoroughly walked by most of the bikes i'm around. CBR954RR, 1200CC bikes, etc.

Well it wasnt Eric's dyno. Eric was flown in by a group of guys who wanted him to tune their vehicles. This took place at some dyno in New York that was rented out for the dyno session for all these guys. His stock 4.6L went kablam @ 5,000 RPMs with zero pinging and a rich A/F. Numbers were 367/427 but 427 TQ requires alot more HP than 367 so you get the drift.
