Default Maggie Install Completed

Just got my car back from the shop, actually Next Level Performance in Orlando. I just got tired of waiting for the KB and had a I/C Maggie installed with a 3.3" pulley. The rest of the job consists of:
Comp 218/226 .563/.570 115 XER cam
Comp daul spring kit
Textralia Clutch - Z06 hydraulics
SW LT headers - RT HF Cats TIVO exhaust
Duel link timing chain
LS6 ported oil pump
DTE drive train brace
DTE hardened output shaft
The all important "TUNE"
I already had a V-Ram intake and a 160 stat. After the tune the car dyno'd at 463HP with 442 LBS of torque. The air fuel ratio floated between 11 & 12 on the three pulls. This my first F/I car, and it is a thrill, but I am sure you all know that already. I would also like to compliment Mike Norris and his crew, they did a great job and were a pleasure to work with

I do have some PICs and the dyno slips, I just don't know how to post them on the forum yet. As to the cost, as you all know horsepower is expensive, but because Mike has previously posted a thread with his prices for various projects on this forum, I can tell you the price of the Maggie install with the tune is $7200. You might want to send him an E-mail to discuss your project, I am sure he will give you an estimate.

AJAY--
I used a Starcraft Hood, ordered from Lingenfelter. It is an excellant product, the body shop guys that painted and installed it said it was a good fit for an after market product. I am going to put my Boost and Fuel Pressure gages in the back of the hood facing the driver, and see how that looks.

Congrats!

Gotta love the added HP and added TQ.

Don't take this the wrong way but your numbers seem a bit low to me considering the mods.I would be expecting closer to 500 rwhp and 470 rwtq with 3.3 pulley,Headers,Cam,Custom tune)

What kind of boost are you seeing?The Cam and Headers might have dropped you a bit below 6.5Lbs and maybe the 3.3 isn't small enough to get you where you need to be?

Maybe you have lower gears or heavy/big wheels?

Congrats just looking to help a fellow maggie owner.

FYI I made 452 rwhp 445 rwtq with the 3.4 pulley and intake and cat-back upgrades.No custom tune(Hallett filter and Magnaflow Exhaust)

Congrats and enjoy the new found power. The torque will really make driving around at even part throttle even more pleasing.

Later ...Larry S.

You got one hell of a deal......considering these sell for $7000 just for the kit. OR did you go with the silver, instead of the polish? I thought these come with a tune with the kit? I want one of these kits real bad.
