That is on the list to do. For now I need more cooling modifications so thinking about heat exchangers etc.

Yea, I did WeaponX oversized center cooler with the HPE850 pkg. in 2020. Coating the headers is up next.

Heard Weapon X now is not a good dealer. From what I've heard people that paid for parts have not received them over a year later.

I've never had a problem.

Sounds about right, mine made 697whp on 93 octane with a 9.45 lower and stock upper through high flow cats with stock cam. My blower is ported though, standard Kong port, not the X port. I do have additional cooling though, heat exchangers upgraded and a Cordes aux tank. Given there's some dyno variation, I would expect your combo to make 20-30whp or so more than mine. I agree I think you need more cooling and ported blower, then you could reduce the pulley size some and possibly run an E blend depending on your chosen pulley.

My next step down the road is to probably upgrade to the Kong X Port, reduce the pulley size, add a stage 1 mild cam and any other fuel upgrades to run an E blend.

Yes sir. 707rwhp was also SAE. With the ported blower I should be 730-760rwhp with a cold pull in my opinion which is where you would be with a cam and all I believe

Yea, sounds right. You're already above the limits of street tire traction.

The tuner and equipment used can make a difference in the final numbers. Add to that temps at time of tune and a host of other variables. My tune on the Mustang dyno would show 6-7 % difference on a Dyna tune equipment as an example. This is why a base tune before a build is the only way to see what increase you achieve after using the same equipment.
