Default My New Davenport Build

Wow. This car is awesome. Can't say enough about the excellent build by Davenport. Details of the build:

Lingenfelter CNC Head
LMR Custom Grind Camshaft (Late Model Racecraft)
GMPP Lifters
Chrome Moly Pushrods
American Racing Long Tube Headers with high flow cats
A&A-VS3 Supercharger with intercooler, upgraded balancer
Lowered on factory bolts
ACS Splitter with front deflectors and Zero1 rockers painted Carbon Flash

Tale of the tape:
Stock: 402 RWHP, 404 ft-lb

Boost at 7psi
Now: 681 RWHP, 564 ft-lb

Now just need good weather to get used to the new power!!

Thanks
I am now wondering about my options to add more contact patch. Without adding fenders etc. The current tires are working hard to keep up. So far the results have been somewhere between zero and non-existent.

I'm leaning towards an A&A system myself, that looks awesome on your car!

Sweet looking car. Sharp color!

How many km on it?
Seems to be more carbon on the pistons than I thought a new car should.

Dodosmike
Only about 3000 km.
I am not sure about the carbon, but could it be because of the direct injection?? Not sure if this is on the right track or not, but there sure is a lot more crap on the exhaust tips than on the C6's that I have had.
