It made 448hp on 24psi, they said it will take more timing but i was happy with that for my first night at the track and the head gasket is the 1.88mm cometic. I'm putting it back on the dyno next week to put the boost up and more timing see if i can get closer to 500,

car is now making 480hp on 25psi with some more timing, A/F still around 10.8, had some problems with the gate spring not letting me run more then 25psi, so fixed it now will be dyno'd again in a couple of weeks on 30psi, interesting to see if she can hold on.
