408whp on a mail order tune

Just want to says thanks to chris@ams for a great mail order tune. We have a customers car on the dyno tonight with the mods listed below. Car made 407 then 408 back to back on nothing but a mailorder tune for engine management.

I think this car could make a solid 450whp on 30-32psi on our dyno. This is getting into 500whp range on a dynojet. We have a hydra at the shop waiting to go on our shop car see if we can't blow something up.

Mods are
Artisan SAX-50 25psi
Artisan Upper IC
Artisan Lower
Artisan Intake
AMS Intercooler
Artisan Downpipe
Artisan custom Mid Pipe
HKS Muffler
AEM Meth Kit
Walbro pump
modified stock injectors
Mishimoto rad

Here is a chart with just bolt on parts and then with the tune and the turbo. The AFR ratio is on the last pull.

Those numbers at 25 PSI boost are impressive! Might be 350 AWHP on a heartbreaker Dyno but that's still good. Can't wait to see some nice 11's out of that setup!

We all need more than this. The drag strip cant be calibrated like a dyno.
With the power your claiming better be at least 115-120+ trap speeds easy.
So lets see some vids and ill be ordering one.

Does this mean the claims made in the other thread were BS ? I want to see this thing on pump only (this means no alky) anyone buy this yet?

Why does it strike me as not a good idea to be running a mail order tune with Meth? There are to many variables that need to be predicted for meth and your list of mods, I would get it custom tuned myself...
