That is nuts it made that high torque but only 485whp. What is that all about? Does the boost taper off big time after peak torque or something?

Ok, that makes more sense. I though it was basically a full pull since you mentioned "semi successful pull."

Spinning it out to 6500 should be interesting.

I'm pretty certain it's not a code problem, it's a tuning problem to deal with the bypass valve and the SC clutch. I can guarantee the ECU is freaking the **** out over the bypass valve not being present.

If there is a problem then more than likely there will be a code also. I have dealt with similar issues before on other cars. The trick is to know what the ECU is complaining about specifically and tricking it into thinking that it isn't an issue. For example is the ECU complaining that the sc clutch isn't there? Or is it that it isn't engaging? Knowing that determines how you deal with it.

The clutchless guys (Weistec SC, or the Fixed pulley) manage to overcome that, no? EC Managed to get a tune for the fixed pulley and also managed to tune the Weistec SC, so, it can be solved, I am hoping to see new results
