This is my first Terminator which I have owned for about 2 months now. Was gonna just drive it for a year or so then mod, but you guys have ruined that for me! Anyway, mods are in signature and on the car with the exception of the upper pulley and idlers, they will be waiting at the dyno shop for install.
Just excited and wanted to share with those who would appreciate the gravity of this situation! :dancenana:

who is tuning your car? I took mine over to Horsepower by Hermann right off the beltway in MD. About an hour drive but Hermann is awesome. Not sure where in VA you are but I can't recommend him enough.

5sp07GT, I am south central Va, about 15 mins from the NC state line.
I've read countless threads to try and estimate my HP/TRQ. I would be happy to get 450/450, I've seen Dan get some pretty good numbers. I will post later this weekend as I know everyone is waiting with baited breathe for my numbers, which will pale in comparison to MANY around this joint!

Hey Dude! I meant to ask you your screen name today at Dan's shop.
I was blown away with the numbers HP 491/TQ 493. Dan said that the car is a factory freak, did not expect those numbers! Different car for sure. Nice meeting you today, give me a ring sometime and we can meet up and RIDE! Even though you are still faster!!! I'll PM you my phone#.

I was blown away, I had hoped for 450/450 and was grinning like a school girl after the third pull and saw the numbers, still WAY behind most of you but still loving it. Dan's mechanic, Paul told me sometimes you run into a factory car that just has the right combination. With that on top of Dan tuning it, it went pretty well! I can see how this can/will be very addicting.

HUGE Numbers for an unported Eaton (Make the Race Port your next upgrade and shoot for 550 which will be ridiculous!) you did the right Mods without taking the blower off, Impressive!

Congrats on the new numbers man!
I'm heading in the same direction with cobra as far as bolt ons.

As everyone said great guys at Pro Dyno. :rockon:

I've heard a few people say there dyno reads higher but idk if its true.
I know Dan did a great job tuning my 4v turbo gt though.

Thanks derockgt, I didn't really expect those numbers either, but I'm sure gonna take em! Coming from stock, it feels like I have added nitrous to it. Can't imagine what these Whipple/KB guys are feeling?????????
