I had no weight reduction, no suspension and no "bigs and littles" (actualyl heavier-than-stock aftermarket wheels in front with Z51 brake setup) and went 11.2 at mid 122s with 397rwhp in my full bolton LS2. You should have no problem at least beating that MPH with so much more RWHP and should DESTROY it once you get a Ported FAST.

So if the OPs car is making a self proclaimed 43X peak power at 6400-6300rpms, why would it drop to 0 hp from 6300-7000rpms? Your assertation is frivolous.
From 6600-7000rpms, with his setup, there isn't any useable/efficient power being produced, and by shifting at 7k, he's losing valuable ET.
PS. The OP hasn't provided any relevant substance to his own thread except for circumstantial data.

You are arguing that the only power that matters is peak power. Stop herpderping.
My assertation is not frivolous. You are just herpderping this thread up. If the intake doesn't "make" power at 7K RPM's then it would mean ZERO hp is being made. Also, since you seem to just focus on peak power.. if his car makes peak horsepower at 6300 RPM's that means you believe his car doesn't "make" power below 6300 RPM's because it isn't peak power.
That's smart. Good Job.

Especially with his being a manual trans that typically traps notably higher than an automatic with the same/similar level of modifications in the same conditions. 
Probably some of the best advice/suggestions given in this thread thus far.

Ha ha ha...WHAT?!?!
Please show me where it was said or implied that his car would be making 0 horsepower at 7k rpms.
I mean, assuming the motor doesn't let go at 6900 rpms anyway....
If anyone is "herpderping" (I guess this is the new term for people spewing nonsense...previously it was "butthurt") it's you when everyone knows what is meant by a phrase like "doesn't make power at 'xxxx' RPM" means. The assertion that it means the motor literally stops turning and producing power is assinine.

I don't see how this is a hard concept for you guys to understand.

I can appreciate your logic in trying to explain a literal meaning though, but it just doesn't apply to the car-modding scene.

Name calling? (if that's what that even is?)
I suppose my youth could be a reason why I understand the terminology, but I know plenty older than myself who do as well.
I'm just trying to understand why you're being difficult about a common phrase.
No one with any sense believes that, when referring to a car, the terms "that car doesn't MPH" (at the track) or "that car doesn't make power" doesn't actually mean the car crosses the line at 0mph or the car literally makes 0 horsepower. It's clear you're just trying to be difficult for the the sake of being argumentative.
Get over your failed position

Why so much hostility? You speak as if you have a vested interest in the topic-do you know the OP? CF is generally drama-free and is a great place for enlightening conversations about our cars without the excess drama. Why resort to such childish behavior?

Based on yours are we to assume that you are in fact/literally Kyle/Bruce/Gary all wrapped into one?
Or is that screen name only meant figuratively?

Do you even know what average/useable/efficient HP is?
FYI, And I know you're kind of slow and illiterate, so I'll make it as simple and concise as I can. A Stock LS2 intake will not flow enough air through 243/799 LS6/LS2 heads at 7k rpms to produce any useable/efficient power.

If the motor is idling, it is making BHP, so in order for the OPs car to make, in what you stated as "0 HP", the igniton would have to be turned off. Why would anyone turn the engine off and restart in each gear from 6300-7000rpms at the strip.

You obviously don't even comprehend the words that you use.
