With a perfect tune as you stated and water injection I see no reason why your motor would'nt hold up. Seems like there's a lot of skepticism but there really hasn't been much documented, that I've seen, of stock blocks running in the 500's to past judgement on whether the motor will last or not. Keep up the good work and please continue to post your findings, good and bad, so that all of us not planning on a built motor can at least have a solid template to work from.

With the power you're putting down, you should run against some bikes! I'm meeting my friend with a Ninja 600RR this afternoon. Let me know.

I didnt catch it in the beggining of the thread, but are you running this on 100 octane fuel? Your injectors are certainly at 100% duty cycle, so you may want to consider upgrading to larger injectors at some point in the future.

Its all about throttle control, dont worry you make the ground up quick on those cars that can launch better. Then they don't realize what happened.
Also have you changed your suspension? I have the Zeal and if I put it on full soft I get way better traction. However if I have it on 4, 5, or 6 being the firmest settings, 3rd gear will break loose a lil.
