Evosport ODPS Trap Speeds?

Anyone have any before and after dragstrip trap speeds for their ODPS setup on a C32 or SLK32? I've seen the many dyno runs (all of which looked pretty impressive to me), but I'm trying to estimate what those gains translate to in terms of MPH at the 'strip. Right now I'm running 108-109mph in my stock SLK32.

Also, anyone know of a mechanic or shop in the Tri-State (NY/NJ/CT) area that has already installed the ODPS on an SLK32? I'd rather go to someone that's done this already instead of being a guinea pig.

BTW, the reason why I decided to go with Evosport and not Renntech is because over the years I've personally seen virtually every car Renntech registered in the One Lap of America blow up.

Were all of your runs on 91 octane? 4mph is pretty damn impressive!

Some runs were with 91 octane and some with 100 octane. The results were the same. 108mph at 1200 feet elevation should convert to 109 to 110 mph at sea level. Therefore I think your trap speed is about right since you are in the east coast.
I have ran againest a 01 z06 once on the highway and we were pretty dead even. I can only pull one car length on him up to 130mph.
01 zo6 has less hp than the 02 z06

Yes the RENNtech CLK did blow up, however RENNtech cars have won the race in the past and have several top 5 finishes.
