Yea I def don't want to rush them. It would be nice to have it back for OC but I told Frank he had as much time as he needed to get everything sorted out. UpRev even wrote me back today so I'm pretty sure they can get it done.
What 240 was yours at Hills?

mine is the ghetto p.o.s. rolling chassis.
all the good stuff is at my storage unit.
i'm doing the same thing as you, getting every misc piece needed, and then i'm dropping all the sht off at the same time and going to town on it.

I stopped shooting video after 9 pulls. He could have done more but he tuned it for power first where he needed max RPMs then he tuned it for torque. The tranny started to heat up and he said he could tell it was slipping some so he was not getting max torque numbers. He let it cool for about 20 minutes and went back at it but at that point it was heat soaked. He could probably get a little more out of it and they offered to let it sit 'till the end of the day then finish. I know I was up there a while but he did a very meticulous job and tuned it right. I may take it back sometime to get the last bit done but my final numbers were around 260 whp and 215 tq and yes, the automatic does eat up a lot of power. It started at 248 whp and about 200 tq or there abouts. Again, I love the way it drives now so it's not only peak numbers but what the curve looks like.

Dynos do read different for sure. Even the same dyno on different days can read different on the same car. I wouldn't worry about it too much. Just keep going to Hill's.

Oohh ok didnt know you had cams also. When I saw you put down 248 before the tune I said wtf. But yeah those headers, cams and extended redline equal alot of topend power. I bet your power curve doesnt drop off until around 7k or so.
I bet with some drag radials you'd break into the 12's in the 1/4. If you ever decide to go you can borrow mine.
