Well as most of you know I have had troubles with my boost. Over the winter I had the turbo rebuilt. I bought the turbo used and it had a little piece of rubber/rtv in the bearing. I guess that was helping it not spool like it should have.

Yesterday I took her to the Dyno and got the tune she needed. It put down 422hp and 472ftlb. Could have went more but it's still a stock motor. She is a beast on the street. Even at a 40mph rip she won't hold traction. :D it was a long road to get it done but its worth it. I still have one problem to figure out before Louisville.

Congrats!

It's really funny how the turbo MM cars have such a big tq spread on hp but with the s/c cars it's usually more hp than tq.

That and the power delivery. Whenever I drive a turbo or centri car it comes on so smooth and pulls like a 747 never feeling an end in sight.
