)? Or is only NO2 worthwhile...
)? Or is only NO2 worthwhile...I don't have any experience using them on the dyno, or on the track...yet.
I always thought it would nice to use, on a hot day, just prior to making a pass at the drag strip.

Did you end up coming to the end of the Mountain Run on Sunday? I remember passing by a nice redline on the way down from Chris' mishap.

For a stock head/cam car this one hauls some serious ****, and is immaculate. Well done Forged, well done Jeremy. Look forward to meeting up with you again at ZdayZ.
Regarding Larry-while I can feel his pain I dfont think he expressed it at the right time or right place.

My understanding is that both DJ and DD use speed and acceleration to calculate whp so actual wtq is not what is measured (but engine tq is measured but at the wheels; that is, including drivetrain losses). So you could put in a ridiculously low 1.0 final drive, and the dyno would still read similar #s. Correct?

I understand Jet's frustration, but his car is all good now...and I am sure he is enjoying it thoroughly!

Congrats Jeremy....car looks real nice....nice power.
Good work as usual Sharif.
Sharif ...after reading about Jet's experience with his build'S....I don't think he is angry with you....I think the entire experience from the start has upset him. Jeremy works for you..so. I can see you taking more of a chance with his tune verses a customer. Its well known that you will not take a chance for high dyno numbers at the experience of reliability.
Keep up the good work

You'd have to pry my hands from the wheel. 
Sharif, you would love this thing on the track.
Nice!
