Well its been a couple months now, and the car has held up perfectly. I have not had any issues with jerky-ness or rough shifts. The car just pulls hard all the way to redline. The SST still seems to find the right gear at all times which is great considering the substantial bump in power over stock.

My next plan is to install the Cosworth cams and the GST boost pill and get it retuned by Alfred @ Tuning Technologies.

That's good to hear. Your power numbers is what I want to be around so it looks like I will be safe in that range.

You will be shocked by what the pill did, at least I was ... with a little fewer mods than you, I am somewhere north of 300whp. Hard to say, because the dyno was reading high (350whp). But, as some others have posted on here, I was starting to run short of fuel according to the wideband, so I guess somewhere around 330whp isn't out of the question, as the stock system goes short there. However, my next round will address this with the FP-Red, AMS Fuel rail, intercooler, and LICP. If AMS has a good cam set by then, I may do that too, we will see. I am hoping for somewhere around 450whp, on the AMS dyno.

Are you going to run it at the track? That'll show the real output.
You can't mess up those numbers....

Why would the SST be too smart? We are doing a 1 gear pull here.
91 octane stinks man.

Nice
Quote: The GSR's have definitely been putting down more power than the MR's with similar modifications.

I like the sound of that

So i talked to Alfred @ Tuning Tech, and he is NOT recommending that I go for the cams and pill. He feels that the tranny is approaching its limits and that I should wait until someone releases some kind of clutch pack. Pretty disappointing. So now I am going to focus on Carbon Fiber stuff

What makes him feel that? If you believe everything you read on the internet then your transmission should have already blown up now.

So how about HP? How much did you gain over stock? Sorry if I overlooked it on this thread...
