If you look at it again it actually reads "27 rwp gain @ 5600 rpm" So that is the gain at that given RPM! Alot of people only know how to read a dynochart and its peak Gains which you can hardly feel. It is the gains below 6k that put you in your seat!
It is just a number that I threw out there so that people could see the gains at other rpms as well

That's because it was not done with the same headers, catback, intake or tuned on 95+ octane. My car was also tuned with a load dyno, that allows the tuner to really dial it in!

You need to let this go quick, you'll be contacted further about this shortly!

MOVE ON...



Back on topic, very nice #s, and good gain under the curve!!!

(no offense) I'm not buying this for one minute. And in addition, NFW it's worth the $1400 one has to pay for it IMHO.

NPP is the best option I got on the car! I find myself switching back and forth every 5-10 minutes. Every car should have a flap system, its the best of both worlds.

Robert check your PMs!!!

The torco is what is really increasing the power up to that 455 figure. In the subaru world we are seeing 20-30 AWHP from mixing a 32 oz can into a tank of gas on a tuned car. That is a little 2.5 L 4 banger. Yes you can run more timing and boost on 97 octane mix but I assume the same would be the same for an LS3 (minus the boost) but since the engine is so much bigger and more powerful I would think 30 whp is easily achieved by a tuner that can use 97 oct fuel.

Im the import world octane is king. On 104 octane these cars put down like 80 whp more, its insane. We recently tuned a GT30r turboed Legacy GT to over 400 awhp on a torco tune. It should run mid 11's easy. stuff is amazing

Not to hijack but...

I used 80oz of Accelerator per tank on my Whipple'd 04' Cobra on 24lbs of boost. It made a little over 605 rwhp (SAE) - 636 rwtq (SAE) on a soft tune.

Great stuff!
