Hey guys, thanks for all the replies. I was just trying to predict my final numbers =)

The car started getting tuned 2 days ago and they are finishing it up tomorrow. I just couldn't wait for the final numbers! It put down 386rwhp at 9psi... and 438rwhp at 10.5psi... Just wanted to make sure my car is making the right amount of power for a DD (which we all know is a heartbreaker).. Should put me in the 530 range at 16 psi. I'll throw it on a Dynapack or DJ later if I wanted inflated numbers haha. Can't wait for the car to come back!!

I'm happy with my #'s as long as I get fun pulls on the highway and get enough traction

Well I sent my car back to Forged mostly for the TC swap - I just didn't trust anyone local to do it. The first one was designed for drag racing and low rpms were "lazy". And I realized that welding in cats so close to the turbos was not the smartest idea I ever had. I really didn't bump up power that much. I actually thought I was pretty good to not force the issue and ask for W/M injection. I think 500 is the sweet spot for the street, for solid power in every gear.

Hey Alberto, it would be great to show an overlay of the dyno curve at the same PSI with the S1 cams vs. the BC stage 3. Did you lose significant mid range?

So got a call from the tuner.. 518 @ 1 bar (5th gear pulls).. (14.5psi?)

Hopefully get back on the dyno and get it up to 16psi on Monday/Tuesday. Just got the oil sandwich adapter for the oil cooler.. we stripped the last one doing a break in oil change.. Can't wait to get the car back!! I plan on hitting up a DJ to compare numbers also.. full write up thread in a few days!@#

Please think before you post crap regarding other peoples intentions...

If my TN + stock block setup had never blown up Id be rocking it still, it was plenty fast to whoop on cars, and tons of fun with traction.

But it blew up and I made the most of it.

If my Foged build hadnt fawked up so soon, I wouldnt have rebuilt the car again, it was nasty fast, and hadnt lost a race EVER at a "measly" 581whp.

But it did blow up and I made the most of it.

I dont chase numbers, other than those I want to see on my timeslip, and even then I havent drag raced the car since September of 2007.
