It should make 600whp IMO. From the clutched pulley to the fixed should be 40whp...TB should be 40whp with meth and all...I don't see a problem getting 600+ whp. Let us know when you make the Dyno run.

My research has determined that the clutch SC pulley is worth like 20whp...real numbers! Some will dispute this and that's fine....the fixed SC pulley has some real and serious gains! I have heard some really high #'s that seem tough to believe but 50-60whp has been believable so do the math with meth now! My friend got the fixed and gained stupid HP! lol Didn't dyno it but we ran before and after and he gained serious car lengths. Anyway, between that, the meth and 90mm TB that's my guess! We will only wait and see AK before you start a debate or some type of argument...somehow! THIS IS ONLY MY OPINION! Wait for results!

Just telling you his car was fast! His name is Meto but I forgot his user name as I haven't seen him post in a while. His car was silver and he came out to LI with a friend in a black e55 with same pulley and his car was going great too! That fixed pulley works!

It's crazy how small the stock tb is on these. In my eyes even the big aftermarket option of 82 is small. The little naturally aspirated 4.8 that came stock in my truck has a 90mm (really 87).
What options are out there for bigger then the 90 for the hemi guys? Apparently the 100 really measures 93? Unless something else is out now.

as Meto had some minor trans shifting problems that was minor. Even with the sporadic shifting issues the car was much faster! Hopefully the issue wasn't going to cause a permanent issue but I haven't heard from him so I do not know. I understand your concerns though. I am sure that others that have it will chime in or start a thread about it. I think his friend in the black car had no issues for some reason.

It's a somewhat-common issue a lot of people get after modding; almost always after swapping out the throttle body for a bigger one. During light-throttle cruising and then entering an increased load situation, the car will hiccup or feel like a little misfire. Fuel trims start going really high and the car will just run weird at off/on throttle and at idle. As soon as the car is restarted, it goes back to normal like nothing even happened. Also, a P0106 MAP code is triggered. There have been several of us trying to get rid of it. We've checked for leaks, swapped throttle bodies, installed new O2 sensors, updated firmware at the dealer, tried multiple tunes from multiple tuners, yet nobody has yet to cure it. The worst thing about it is that the hiccup is exaggerated with the fixed pulley.

IMHO I believe it will run 10.6x. I'm good with a 10.8 so at this point I may never know.............

The usual array of mods, 82mm tb,TTM Fuel Rail & Injectors,MBH Headers,Custom CAI,OE Tune all at full weight (clk wheels+MT DR's)+250lb driver. Nailed 10's on 4th run down the track after mods installed. I went back to the track a couple of weeks later and made one run and went home because I beat my previous time so I'm not sure what my car will run. My 60' was 1.63 so if I can get that into the 1.5's and add a braille battery,amg spare wheels up front, hoosiers out back and a lightweight driver....who know's what it will run IMHO I believe it will run 10.6x. I'm good with a 10.8 so at this point I may never know.............

I absolutely agree with everything you said except getting into the 1.5's for 60ft. That might be really hard. Your 1.63 is giant for these cars I thought? Either way, I think your car is a freak!
