It sounded like that was all he was comfortable with based on me saying that I wanted to be on the safe side and make sure I didn't tear anything up. I though that was pretty good starting with a baseline of 250 HP. I have the 9 lb pulley and he said that they measured right at 7.2 psi which is right around what we expected based on the altitude.

Weiboy, we had spaghetti, I think there is some left but all the bread is gone!

I'll be back later

It's at astronaut altitude... 385 is pretty impressive imo

I will probably go down Friday or Saturday to pick it up. It snowed quite a bit today and I live almost an hour north of MAC. Bill said it was no problem to leave it with them a couple of days until the roads clear up. The guys in the shop should have some good picks of the project. They are going to make me a cd with the pics from their shop camera. I will definitely take a few when I get there.

Hopefully, I will have a dyno sheet to post tomorrow afternoon. I am stuck in meetings from 7:30 AM until around lunch time but I should be able to sneak out then and post anything new I have.

Good luck with everything. Hope the snow clears soon so you can pick it up. It must be a very anxious wait by now to sit in it and drive it. We are all looking forward to the pics.

Talked to Bill just before I left work. I know this is not official without the Dyno sheet which I don't have yet but he told me verbally that they got right at 385 HP. He didn't give me the torque number. They still have some work to do on the Auto Tranny tune, he was giving me a hard time saying if I had gotten the MT I would have it warm and safe in my garage right now instead of his! He promised to send me the Dyno files as soon as they wrap up tomorrow. They also want to go over the AFR for the entire range and make sure they don't need to back off a little.

Nothing is officail of course until I get the dyno data so no one has won the pool yet. Gotta eat and take care of kiddos. I will be back online later this PM.
If this is true that means I WIN!!!!!

So far, so good. Minor problems, major gains.

Yes, for that altitude this car has some BIG authority!

Looking forward to pics and a scan of that dyno sheet. Nice.

Dyno Sheets Are UP!

DmfG37sTT, you must be freaking psyhic! Check the final numbers my friend, you hit the HP on the freakin nose!

Here is the dynosheet comparison between the baseline run and the power run after final tune, both in 4th gear.

Baseline Run Conditions: 67.83 deg. F, 24.53 in-Hg, Humidity: 16%, N/A
Power Run Conditions: 71.21 deg. F, 24.31 in-Hg, Humidity: 13%, 7.2 PSI Boost

No pictures yet as I am picking her up tomorrow. I will post a summary next week with pictures, facts and driving impressions.

I want to give a big thumbs up and thanks to Bill and his crew at MAC. Based on these results, my baseline numbers and our altitude, I can say that these guys know their $hit!

I would definitely recommend them to anyone in the Denver or surronding areas.
