That ish is sick!!! I get a woody everytime I watch it. Now to see if the stock block can hadle that kinda power for and extended period of time. I remeber when everyone first started boosting the 35's and there were all kinds of blown engine threads shortly after.

After two days, I still can't stop thinking about this thread. Just purely amazing so far. Can't wait to see the results after they tear down the motor. Then we'll know "about" what we can expect.

Yeah but won't it be showing very little wear at this point, only being boosted for a few dyno runs and what not? I would think it wouldn't truly show any problems until you've been driving it at 500+HP for a while.

Well here's to hoping it shows no wear. I'd love to boost my car to 400-450ish for a daily driver. That'd be perfect, put some 11-11.5inch rear tires for added grip and you'd be set.

What would that kind of increase in HP do to our already horrible gas mileage? Where before you got 15mpg in city, we talking 12 now?

What, 4.4-4.7 with a 450-500hp and 11inch rear tires? Sounds reasonable to me.
