Your car is a monster!!

Nice Dyno. Must be nice to know you are driving one of the most powerful production cars ever. What a sleeper. I would pay to see the face of an owner of a ZR1 after a street drag race against your car. Enjoy it in good health (that is a stereotypic Jewish saying)

Wow...great #'s!! It looks like it is putting down 20hp and 50lbs-ft tq more than the previous set-up. I can't wait to see what it will do at the track!!

Are you going to post the dyno graph to dragtimes.com?

Thanks Tom.

I'll get the dyno graph from RENNtech and post it.

Looking forward to getting it to the track as well.

Hoping dyno numbers convert to a lower ET.

Your worst nightmare...
Steve,

Impressive numbers man. Glad to see another 65 putting out good numbers.
Question: Do you know how much boost your runnning? Have they done any work to the TCU, I hear that is a big hold back on these cars.

Can't wait to see some track numbers!

LOL! Yeah, I see a lot of similarities. Weird because Judaism is a religion and Italian is an ethnicity but for some reasons they have similar culturisms. I know a few Italian Jews actually. Most Jews come from Europe so that is probably the reason.

Thanks Jody.

I will find out the exact amount of boost tomorrow and post. With respect to the TCU, I believe they have raised the torque limits; however, they left some safeguards (limits) to prevent driveline breakage. Lots of torque on stock components can do bad things.

Boost is just under 1.5 bar.

That is approximaely 22psi if not mistaken. Those are some good numbers for that type of boost level. Keep up the great work man!

Doesn't AMG claim 22 psi stock? That number always sounded too high to me, though clearly the wastegates don't allow full boost all the way to redline.

Does the boost come on lower in the RPM range after the tune, and/or does it maintain 1.5 bar to redline?
