They have done everthing to fix the missing pieces, wrong pieces, etc but first dyno we could only pull 390.37hp with 340.77lbs torque. Hell at 5psi it was only 322.22hp with 273.65 torque. Oh did I mention they sent the wrong sprayers for the methanol injection and sent a 2 gallon jug. Now where in the hell is a 2 gallon jug gonna go in a 370?? Next Monday it's going back in again. Project started in June....
Sorry to hear that you've had problems. I also got very close numbers to you around 415hp 365lb torque at 7.5 psi I am hoping to add methanol injection and bump up the boost in spring. I don't think i'm gonna go with their kit though and I was thinking of building a custom tank in the trunk because as you mentioned there just isn't much room in our car for any of the pre-made tanks. I had recieved a dyno chart from sts with higher initial numbers but then i added a resonator it seems to have dropped the numbers a bit. Are you running a resonator on your setup? And do you have hfc's or test pipes? I hope you get your problems resolved quickly, I am curious as to whether you feel the methanol injection is worth it.
