So what type of 0-60 and 1/4 mile times are you pulling? How is the tranny handling that torque? The Renntech pulley must be a different diameter from the ASP and Kleeman for you to be getting that much power!

thanks guys

It's been 9 years now since I put the wing on... can't remember where the heck it came from? sorry

The power output of 320 ft.lbs. at the rear wheels is under full supercharger and nitrous boost. The baseline with the pulley, ecu, intake, exhaust was 220 at the wheels, if I remember correctly. I don't kill it or measure it from 0-60 or 1/4 mi. But it's quick. It'll shock the hell out of an older corvette and pulled 160mph on the dyno at redline.

As for the tranny, it's taken a beating and has some slop when the car is put into park. At 105,000 miles, this may be axles and drive shafts etc ...normal wear items... Still perfectly drivable. I attribute this success to the ability to drop only 10% nitrous boost then ramp up to any chosen percentage, typically 100%. It's pretty cool how it so smoothly pulls harder and harder as it builds speed.

I tried to take some photos of my charts (been in a folder stashed in a closet for many years... my phone camera may not display it well (sorry no scanner). One shows 158 mph at redline, the other shows 321.14 ft.lbs at the wheels under full nitrous boost.
