Nice 60' on yours as well, Joe. Have you replaced your intercooler pump?

Nice. Which one did you go with? I swapped out to the Bosche 010, seems to be pretty solid so far.

Dyno numbers are in!

My car made 513whp and 606wtq. Plenty happy with the results!

Stock pulley.

Well, I don't particularly put a ton of faith in dyno numbers. But two other cars in my group read nearly spot on as compared to their runs on other dynos.

At the end of the day, the time slip speaks the truth. At least for me, anyhow.
