Default Forged Performance: Another 600whp+ meth setup
Hi everyone. We have been extremely busy, and havent had as much time to post about many of our latest customer project cars.

But here is a nice one I wanted to share with everyone.

Chad's car was literally the SECOND car that Forged Performance put together when we first opened our doors at the Atlanta location about a year and half ago. Chad went full force with his car, and it included a GTM sleeved shortblock, big valve heads, cams..the works.

After thousands of happy miles, and 1.5 years usage, he snapped one of his axles. So the car arrived to repair the axle issue, and also install a meth kit, retune, and just give the car a thorough once over.

I just got off the dyno, and happy to report that the engine is still making great power....still tuned with the UTEC for now...running a Snow Methanol kit, and 93 octane pump gas at 16.5psi. Eventually Chad plans on upgarding to the Haltech.

So Chad, welcome to the 600whp club.....on pump gas. As always, our numbers are raw DD numbers.....no DJ corrections. Enjoy!

Doesnt the methanol give you an octane increase so you can run a more aggressive timing setup? Also what size cams is he running?

this one responded a little better to slightly leaner than I usually go....high eleven's basically, and a little bit more timing.
