What mods are you running? Haha, you can't really compare another tuner to another tuner tho. Honestly, for those who know Matt, he's a freaking genius on the tune so. I think he pushes my car to the limit without fkng it up honestly. But, I'm tapped out right now on the stock blower unless I go cam, but I'm looking at adding the Whipple, hitting that 900 hp mark and calling it a day.

I did a few pulls the other night after my last tune and honestly, once that meth hits, it won't stay straight. Now, temps are in the 50's, so it's not like I'm getting great traction but still.

As a matter of fact, this same night, I went out to find me some roll racing. Sure enough, a GT350R rolls up. I yank on him hard, ass end is kicking out the whole time, I'm having to back off the throttle a tad, then back in it. Then back off, then back on it. Still smashed on em. Car is def running crazy fast right now.

Yea, I kept them. I was going to go R888R's, but I wasn't sure of my wheel fitment so. I need 315's for sure now. But, I'll burn these off first.

What kind of #'s were you wanting with your mods?

i didnt have any number in mind but its insane to think im missing 80+ hp from not having meth. And its crazy an upper pulley is creating 18psi! is your car a 6 speed?

Well, I have the lower and upper done. Meth didn't gain me 80. I think my last run was around 707, then I added meth, went to 722, then E85 and am at the #'s I'm at now. Before that, I was around 680. So, with meth and E85, we gained 65 it looks like.

I've done so many tunes now, I can't keep track of the progress, but the air temps sure are helping. It's hp weather for sure. I only ran 18lbs of boost because of 30 degree temps and we were able to add 2 degrees of timing. We pulled that back now after the E85. I don't know all of the technical jargin when Matt explains what he's done with timing, air, fuel. All that crap is above my pay grade. I do know he said I ran out of fuel, so he had to back it down on the last pull. Whatever that means. haha.

Btw, I'm now a huge fan of the meth. I love it when it hits. It's like taking a huge hit out of a bong. Bam!!!!!!!!!

For one, he's running upper and lower pulleys, he's spinning the blower a lot harder than you are. He's only able to do that because of the meth injection, he had heavy spark knock before that. I believe he's got a 15% lower and a 2.31" upper which is a lot more overdrive than a 15% or 18% which is what you likely have?

All that said, 720 (Former numbers) to 740 RWHP is crazy for bolt ons...Never heard of that before and I've seen and read about hundreds of built LT4 engines. Usually you have to have a cam to get over 670ish RWHP. Don't be upset with your numbers, but I would recommend you grab a dual nozzle meth kit for your build if you want some more power.

I would agree with Ktt, his car is being pushed to the max (Supercharger RPM wise) and likely Matt tuned her pretty aggressively as well.

I think I'm 18 lower, shoot, maybe 15. I'd have to go check again. haha. but I'm with you. I've admitted esp from Matt that we are spinning it pretty good, but the Meth compensates I guess. We are running the dual nozzle set up. As of now, I'm tapped out and won't push it any further. As mentioned, Whipple is next. And yes, I was having crazy top end knock issues so. Once I hit around the 130 mph mark, it was choking.

Matt did back it down. He said he could of gotten me about 20 more, but we started having fuel issues. So, I feel comfy with what I have now. I still can't believe my numbers are that high compared to other cars. And to think, if this was done on LMR's Dyno Jet, it would prob show around 800 hp. Everyone knows Matt's dyno is a #'s killer. But, true #'s. Eh, it is what it is. I'm just enjoying it until I go more.

I've honestly had it in the shop longer than I've actually driven it so. I'm going to put a few thousand miles on it, then start my next hp bump.

That's what it's about!! Enjoy it. Those are good wheel #'s. Enough to roll pretty much any street car you'll come up against on a daily basis. It's crazy for me to admit it, but this is honestly in my top 3 of all cars I've owned. It's up there with my GTR and Z06.
