Nice strong numbers man. Do you have any HEADERS installed ( I know you said you will get long tubes)? Basically your main mods are pulley + TB + tune?

Car looks sick

i guess a box tune, we tuned it prior to the dyno runs. No adjustments were made at this time. I want to keep it safe anyhowz with all these motors torching #8 piston. I have a warranty but i dont need that drama. The car doesnt even have 50K miles yet

Great numbers for a box tune. Mid to low 11s in the right conditions with DRs.
