Very conservative results, the motor is built to handle quite a bit more than 11psi. It's tempting to start comparing cubic inches and blower size and other setups.

John,
Everybody in the know... Knows how conservative you had to be on the tune, running 93 octane in Texas summer heat with no Methanol... We know your car has TONS of potential with lower IAT's and more agressive tuning... I'm VERY happy for you, It's gonna be a BEAST!!!
p.s. I'm happy to see you go with the ALKY system on your ride... VERY good call!!!
V.P. M3 is my fuel of choice, I buy it by the 55gallon barrel, and a few friends chip in... it comes to $6.72/gal. If I buy it from the local speed shop, 3 gallons or more at a time, it's $7.50/gal, and 1 gal=$8.50... Cost is VERY effective. 1-1.5 gallons used per tank of gas. I just refill, each time I refill the gas tank...

Congrats to your build. It sounds just awesome! It has been a long time coming and I'm sure its a great feeling to finally have your car up and running after the long wait. Enjoy it and can't wait to see some more vids.

M3 VP is good stuff. That is what I use on my car as well

Great results and a well built motor. You have a beast and you WILL enjoy the hell out of it.
I just put a forged 402 stroker in my C6. Added back all my power adds: AFR225 heads, D1SC procharger, etc. First pull was 560/506rw with 3lbs of boost using the 4.75 pulley. Tomorrow doing a pulley swap, going down to a 4.25 and another pull, this time with up to 10lbs of boost. I will post the numbers after the pull.
I'm hoping for numbers like you posted.
