Dyno numbers are in!


386.3 RWHP - 454 crank (15% loss)
379.6 RWTQ - 446 crank (15% loss)

Was still gaining HP @ 6K, may have a fuel delivery limitation because I increased the secondaries by two jet sizes and it did not richen the top end.

I am VERY happy with the numbers.

Just doing some number crunching -

My Tiger = 5.5 lbs/HP

2013 Camero ZL1 = 7.1 lbs/HP

2013 GT500 = 5.8 Lbs/HP

I have no fear of the supercharged cars.
