Fantastic results. Spectacular car. You will cause accidents just driving around on the street - lol! Congrats to owner and job well done Forged and GTM (as usual).

EDIT: I gotta add that I love the pipe routing on that kit. Very well thought out - very efficient. Love the CAI on both sides.

Sharif won't tune a stock block any higher for boost, not right now - I'll bet you 1$. He may do the nitrous just to test it as requested by rogue, but that's it... I don't think he wants to be the one to find the limit of the HR, not on the first one anyway.

that sucks.....but its a show car so goal is to have a nice working turbo kit underneath, not pushing the limits of the car.

still nice setup though....500+whp isnt slow by any means. I wonder how much less TQ is the HR engine producing.

Well done! I'm guessing the system no where close to maxed out. Is there even any reason for NOS if the car has a boost controller?

We had put the NOS in the car while waiting on a TT kit to come out. Since the lines are ran it made sense to us to keep in the car. Plus it gives us more points at a show.

I Love how the power is made to redline.. Just another great addition to an already amazing car. (Not a fan of the powdercoated intercooler though.

The best thing about really great shop owners is their honesty. Honesty builds trust, and trust builds a healthy business. You cannot have one without the other. Sharif has them both.

Always listen to your tuner, especially the ones as talented and honest as Sharif.

Sharif is saying the same thing about the NOS. I don't plan on using NOS on the street now that I have the TT for boost, it is only for getting higher dyno #s.

What do you consider to be driving time? I will probably put 300 miles on it real quick does that count? I have put about 1,000 miles on the car in the last year. Do I wait two to three years (2,000 to 3,000 miles) before using the NOS? Car goes on and off a trailer majority of the time.

I know there are hardly any precedents for a TT on a stock HR block and that I am pushing way over what the DE has done. I realize I should wait to see what other people do with boosting the HR; however it seems to me nobody else will be using TT with NOS for at least a year or more.

just take your duno #'s and add 50-75whp to it lol. I don't see how that extra HP would help impress any more at the shows when you already have 500+ whp.
