Thanks man. 2.8" upper, JLT next gen CAI, JBA offroad H, flowmaster cat back, Fluidyne dual pass heat exchanger, SCT X3

Piece of cake, dont worry about it. Throw a built motor in your car after you blow yours up and then see how stressful dyno days are!

LMAO!!!! I can only imagine!:beer:
What are you "expecting" as far as numbers go?

I'm curious, because I have similar mods, and I'm just trying to see how my car compares. I recently bought the car and had it tuned. The list of mods done to the car dont seem to add up to what the car put down.

I think I may have a ported blower, but he didn't mention it

I expect 450+HP and hope to be 475+. Anything like your numbers around 500 and I will be ecstatic!:burnout:

At one time I had to drive three hours to get to the nearest tuner that knew how to tune. That was stressful. Everything worked out and i didnt have to tow the car three hours home but man I tell I was stressed the f-out.

Well first off I dropped my f****in phone and busted it on the shop floor at 8:15am so I didn't get the documentation I wanted. Then I had a IAT sensor go bad. We replaced it. Then the raggedy maf pegged around 5krpms! Fuel volts maxed at 4krpms. So he set me up with a tune and instructions not to exceed 5k rpms until I get a bigger mad and a boostapump then go back to finish the session. 435whp/450tq @ 5k rpms.

Somethings not right if your pegging the maf and maxing the stock fuel system out at 5k rpms. Plenty of guys are making close to 500rwhp on that stuff.

Interesting :shrug: Did you get info such as air/fuel ratio or how much boost made, timing?

When I bought my car it had the same mods you have on yours. The previous owner said the MAF or the pumps were maxed and my car had a tune on it set at 5k RPM's as well. I planned on uprading those anyways so I changed out MAF and converted to return. I know its not uncommon for your MAF to max with a 2.76 upper. Goodluck in getting everything sorted out.

I would say an average amount of cars the stock stuff can handle 500whp, but there's plenty of stories out there of guys needing a mafia, bap, or injectors at the 450whp level. Just all depends on the car so dont worry too much about it.
