While Randy has done a lot of work.... He hasn't done THAT much work.

While I'm not making any predictions and I've said myself that I don't think it runs as strong as it should, why wouldny I expect to make more power than pats car? He did 318hp with a stock longblock and stock cam. Is he using nitromethane and unicorn pee for fuel?

Randy I will say and always tell people its not always the parts installed, its how they work together.
The Tune is the other thing. I have countless hours dialing it in

Very true.
Based on my 1/4 mi time, vehicle weight and trap speed, I'm only at around 300 whp
With that in mind I will amend my guess to 315 fwhp not the overly optimistic 345.....

I'm guessing 310 because you have KR. KR kills power.

Hmm. I mean, o doubt I'm even making 300 at the crank with as slow as it feel, but given others results with fewer mods I can't help but develop hopeful expectations.

I noticed that too, but you guys don't know about the electric hybrid setup I put together. Lulz.

All very good points and I consider today sort of a baseline to figure out if I'm even in the ballpark of where I think I should be. Basically once I find that out I can formulate my next move, whether it be changing some parts, working on the tune some more or just switching to e85.
Your numbers are pretty *dang* ously there's a lot to be said for your tune. I'm still pretty green at tuning so moat of what I've been doing is in
I can't even delete text on my phone. Good lord...
Anyway, I've been working with dyno Brian just sending files and scans back and forth.

Surprised the torque isn't higher.

Nice numbers Randy!
Torque usually doesn't jump as much as HP with a cam from what I've seen.

Torque seems a little low to me, possibly why it doesn't feel as strong as you'd like? Do you have the torque and HP curves?

More wheel HP than a G8 GT. Not too shabby.

I have a few different graphs they printed out for me. Ill try to post the one with torque, but my hatred of photobucket makes it hard.
Thanks for posting that one, Marty.

I think it would be really interesting to run this and the G8. You'd win, but I think it would come down to the launch.
