He said he would prolly give me some paint when I pick it up to help maintain. Have a few other small things to add to the build, but for the most part it's just about done. Loving the way everything is coming along.
The MAF housing is all one piece and pretty stealthy. The by pass valve is out of plain site attached to the back of the intercooler. He has someone that wants to buy my stock vortech intercooler, what's a good price to let it go for?

No vids or pics but I did get a message about 3am this morning saying,
"worked on tune tonight... stopped at 5200 rpms for right now and car is making 411 and 405. Graph is still going up fast / also had to put VHT on the tires to keep them from spinning on the dyno! "

Yeah man I can't wait for it to be all finished..I have to work today or else I'd be headed up that way. 10 hour shifts suck on a Saturday.. Last time I picked it up I had a viper roll up on me on i85 but conditions were way to bad to even think about trying something. I can't wait to hit up a 1/4 mile track and see how i do.

I don't know what Bobby did, but they sent me a dyno graph up to 6k and that thing picked up some great power! I'm trying to call them just to confirm that it is mine, lol.
Right now it's sitting at 493/438 at almost 15psi! I'd post a picture but for some reason it keeps saying failed on it. The torque is starting to level off, but the up is climbing straight up.

Nice job man!... 500 + - whp Vortech seems to be the sweetspot for a good reliable build that should last you for a good amount of time. With the fluid damper pulley and 2.87 do you know what you are over spinning the blower by?
My build should be right around there as well if not just a tad bit lower as I am limited in the TQ dept by being an auto.
Really interested to see how your impressions are when you get her back!
Congrats!!
