Is anybody else constantly refreshing the page waiting for the results?

So close!! Car wouldn't fit on the Dyno. This rig is slammed and with the widebody kit it was scrapping on the ramps. Also, the shop said the straps would be held tight against the cans on the Berk since it sits so low. It's in the shop now. We are removing the rear fenders and side skirts for clearance. Also removing the cans on the exhaust.

Dyno rescheduled for Thursday. Another week of waiting. Sorry guys. Pics for proof.

Sounds like the dyno run will be done without any exhaust restriction? Will that give inflated results?

The real gains have already been made by swapping out from the stock exhaust. The straight through design of any good forced induction exhaust doesn't really create that much of a restriction, unlike the stock exhaust. It might pick up a couple more ponies but nothing that would be looked at as inflated numbers by just removing the rear cans.

Inflated numbers are when you remove a known to be restrictive air filter entirely like some places have done and then post up numbers saying your kit makes 80whp more than the competition. I don't operate that way.

To shed some light on this. Yes and no. It will be very close but we may not have left enough room for a bash bar so it might move over just a tad. However, we have a metal intake that goes from 3.5" to 3.25", passing through the radiator shroud, back to 3.5". There is zero chance of anything collapsing as it is metal throughout and it models flow to be amazing. Im really excited to see what we make with that in combination with the OEM manifold.

The only thing I wish I could change is that we will only be able to dyno on 93 octane tomorrow. We can conclude what it will make on E85 though and I have several guys ready to throw this kit on and throw down some E85 numbers.

We have a winner! Not only did we meet the goal of 500whp on pump gas but exceeded it by quiet a bit. More pics and videos to come.
