The Powerchip tune that Vic has, I dyno'd at 443.6rwhp, but that tune will blow up my motor when running nos, so they have to detune/pull back some timing for NOS to run safe.
I don't believe that my car currently put down 393rwhp on motor because both Max and Vegastrashed ran me before and both said my car actually stronger on sat (back then when I ran them, my dyno was around 420-425rwhp).

I have RPI headers, RPI full exhaust(section1,2,3), RPI pulley, RPI scoop, K&N drop-in filter and RPI/Powerchip NOS tuned put down 393rwhp all motor at RPI's DynoDynamic and 493rwhp with NOS.

Don't be so focused on peak hp so much. The power you gained under the curve is more important. That's why you're faster now even though the 393rwhp doesn't reflect that.
Someone's going to ask why the dyno numbers are so low. I'll convert the Dyno Dynamic numbers to crank.
393rwhp = 510
424rwhp = 551
443rwhp = 575
493rwhp = 640

Vic,
There's got to be a way for you to temporarily raise Shamu and get it on RPI's Dyno Dynamics. If you can do it, I'm certain that a spot can be available for you.
