We did a lot of high speed pulls through 3rd and into 4th gear to 140+ MPH and the car pulled quite hard. At one point we came up on a trooper at just about 100...that put a damper on things the rest of that day. I left the air fuels in the high 11s to mid 12s in the interest of the environment the car will be living in. 80F and 80% RH in April...you get the idea. Also, keep in mind we had little to no airflow across the intercoolers, so it would not surprise me at all if on a cooler day and a Dynojet that his car can easily make the 500 HP number.
At the end of the day it doesn't really matter because in the real world the car runs very well and will be more than a handful for just about anything out there.

THAT was a close one!! The car is very fast..wait until I produce a time slip. I'm not going for a record 60 foot launch because I am going to be careful to try and not break stuff.. I'm thinking the trap speed at the end of the 1/4 mile is going to give a hint as to how 'fast' the car really is.
