I broke my intake plenum gasket on the dyno day we had on aug 16th. Fixed my truck the next wednesday and Havnt found a place that was open for me to redeem my #'s. I called every shop in SA and the only place i could get to was Henderson Performance in New Braunsfels. I just came back from there and I sadly I diddn't get my 600+. At Lethal I made 439hp and that was with 15lbs boost and dropping rapidly. Now i'm in the mid 50 range and only got an extra 100hp out of the 35lbs boost difference. I made 503hp and 919tq with no electronics and my best run with the adrenaline on 6 was 541hp and 949tq.
It took 3 pulls just for them to get an accurate readings which i'm still not sure are so accurate. I was expecting a little over 600 judging off Cliff & Weazels trucks making that range with VERY similar setups. The only MAJOR factor i'm missing is theirs is a 5spd and i'm an auto.
The Operator told me that auto's can loose around 21-25% power through the trans and manuals are more like 15-17%. Using those #'s we Projected an estimated 614hp at the wheels if it were a 5spd and 721 at the motor but these numbers have NOT been proved and until i do my conversion i guess i'm sitting at 541hp. Heres a Video...
Fueling up to 3300 not a bit over and 50psi...(still stock valve springs)

And tonite I just found my exhaust manifold was about to fall off. 9 of 12 bolts were way loose and some about to fall out.
