Yep, I was VERY happy with the power, But now have an LQ9 iron with forged internals. Took about 12lbs boost with meth inj. (headers cam ect..) to tell the hyperturd stock pistons to say by bye. Drive very cautious, 800 hp will bite you. I always tell my friends that if you think you are in control, it's about to show you your not! Pick your road carefully!!
