THAT's in 3rd by the way. When Vadim did my car in 4th, the numbers were higher.

Looks like Benz snuck a few extra HP into her.

Thats really amazing, the Zr1 put down 537. I'll take the Black Series over the Zr1 any day of the week.

In the article they say it is a 3rd gear dyno run where it made 573rwhp and 682lbs-ft of torque.

I also have to wonder how much a difference the placement of the airboxes towards the front and sides is impacting the hp #'s. The "old" set-up has the airboxes right on top of the engine heating the plastic up quite a bit. What is funny is that after some runs I can usually touch my I/C cores and the metal will be warm(probably due to the Johnson CM030 pump working its magic)...but the plastic airboxes will be much hotter to the touch.

Loving to see some data out of the SLBS

Maybe some Jang, but it wasn't the case with my car down at Vadim's. I kept beggin him over and over to run my car in 4th. (Vadim is extremely precise and was worried about fans and detonation) but when he finally did, BAM, we hit 700hp on er.

Always was lower on mine in 3rd.

ps. Thanks for the engine cover Jangy. Car looks KILLER with it on. I'll shoot you some pics.

4th will give higher numbers - if the car is properly cooled.

There are very few dynoes that have proper fans.

Hmmm, I wonder why? Vadim has taught me about the air as well and I get that part, I just didn't get that 3rd was lower. I assumed 3rd would be higher because of gearing and slower drivetrain speeds... Learn everyday...
