Anthony, great to finally meet you and tank you for the opportunity you gave us to calibrate this beast.
We have been in contact with Anthony over the past few months as he was completing the build. I cant tell you the satisfaction we get when a customer leaves our shop with a smile on their face. this is why we are in business!

Thanks again Anthony, good luck and drive safe!

Nice Results especially on pump gas. Which belt are you running with the 8.25 lower and 3.47 upper? And how do your IATs look with over spinning the TI?

717 ft lbs is impressive! My little Ti is putting down 800rwhp but no where near the torque. You have a good combo going there. Any ideas how much more e85 might give you?

Haven't look at the IAT's yet. Heck I've only gotten on it twice on the way home. I can tell you this, I am glad this car doesn't have room for the seatback to snap off because this thing throws you in the seat and keeps you there!

Well, as it turns out, I didn't need to run E85 as the meth provided me more than enough octane to keep the motor happy and away from detonation.

Exactly!!!!
Many forget this or don't understand it!! Meth and flex fuel do roughly the same for octane/anti detonation!!

No worries on a prize. I had an advantage we have pretty much the same setup minus the 8.25 lower, ported heads and lt4 injectors. My car made 828whp/699tq on 40%E85 through an A8. You actually get the win for an awesome build out of your own garage.
