Back in the 70's, 80's, and 90's American made didn't mean chit. The C7 Corvette is the first Corvette that was worth a crap.

C5 and c6 vettes had solid powertrains, craptastic interiors, but good performance for their time.

I had a C3 & C4 (78 & 85). My 78 was slower than dog crap, had a crappy respray & the interior was a bit ragged.

My 85 had that gawd awful pad on the passenger's side. I took that out and replaced it with a glove box mod. I put a 160* thermostat in, a Hypertech Stage II chip, 25% underdrive on the pulleys and an epoxy plenum & runners. It was so much fun to see the look on 5.0 driver's faces when my 85 would beat them.

The big challenge with the C4 & C5s was the VATS, too many people kept half a hundred keys on a key ring and then couldn't figure out why the car wouldn't start. I lost count of how many VATS bypass cables I installed.

LOL, I am just doing my thang. Too late to change directions now. If I could have only gotten an allocation for a ZR1 Corvette back in 2018. It would have been different. I refuse to pay way over sticker for a used ZR1. I am going to finish what I started eventually. When I get it just the way I want it I will just enjoy it.

Also his car has a GTR manifold that is well known on our cars to loose power. I would be willing to bet for those reason right there alone that's why it's not a big difference from what you made on a dynojet.

He made 1007whp on that dyno dynamics. If everything was setup properly it should be about 15% difference compared to a dynojet. That would be around 1158whp on a dynojet.

The reason I know it is around 15% is MA's dyno is a dyno pack. We check the numbers coming from it on my first build and then went to a dynojet. It was 15% lower.

If anyone wants a set of FI stage 2.5 or the new stage 2 turbo's, let me know. They more than likely will be coming off my car next year when the motor is dropped. I doubt very seriously they go back on.

That is why I am waiting until next year, for the play fund to be replenished. What am I going to do? No idea yet. I have a couple of options in my head. I will need that time to figure it out. I am very picky when it comes to turbo's.

Do I need to tell you in a colorful language????? Those little Mother fluckers have got to go.

Bottom line is, I have outgrown my current turbo's.

This is what I was trying to point out before when you mentioned he only made a little bit more than you. The dyno dynamics reads low.

Hmmm, I think I predicted that you would run out of turbo when you started down this pathway. It's all learning and really easy to armchair quarterback LMAO

I wanted to push them as far as I could. I really like the response of my turbo's as they are. They are just too small for what I am doing. Finding something that will give me that same response is going to be tough. You never know what I may do. I will drive myself crazy trying to find the perfect turbo. Who knows, I may give up and keep them.
