Lol...I would if I had better tires, my old Falken FK451 are garbage...the build killed my budget, gotta save for some decent tires...

I'm still wondering if there is anything I can do about the torque vs hp difference...I'm willing to sacrifice some hp for torque...

all you could play with is timing, cam or ignition. Otherwise its pretty much straight foward

So what do you think of the S7 cam's with the SC setup? I always thought it would not be a good cam for supercharged applications but it appears you have proven that to be untrue! Dose it pull hard in the mid to upper rpm range and at what rpm dose the power start falling off? good job BTW !!!

Thanks...to be honest I haven't really had a chance to butt-dyno the setup so I can't really say when the power starts to drop off, other than what you see in the dyno for the torque, when I have tried to do a WOT run my garbage tires are not giving me any traction and my glazed clutch (probably from the dynoing/tuning) is not running optimally, so I haven't really had a good feel for what's going on...what I can tell is that it does pull, and pull hard!

The S7R cams are quite mild...Other than a noisier idle you really can't tell you have cams; makes me wonder if the C8R might have still idled good enough for me...maybe you should try the C8R when your turn comes

I do have torque envy however; I think you have more torque in your setup than I do considering your dyno is on a DJ...when I get my next tune with a smaller pulley I'll see what my tuner can do about getting more torque...
