Intially we were at 350awhp and I thought that was about right for stock cams on 92 octane. After triple checking the logs I noticed that it never had any knock so clearly it wasn't done. I think the mod choices really helped evacuate some of the heat that sets off knock. I pressed on with a little more timing until we consistently saw 380's in back to back runs. Pretty amazing for the mods no doubt. Most guys need cams, good weather and a great tune to get to his level.

I'm up for the boost leak test and a few more psi to see if we can crack 400. We had some good night air the other day so It's going to be difficult in the warmer weather but ya never know

And looking at my mod list on here, its missing the rev3 intake manifold and a mil.spec 65mm TB. Could you update that for me Gary, to take away from any confusion?
