I hope we can see a lot more power soon. I know you have hit 525 on your old setup in cooler weather as well.. so I was thinking that would be a breeze with this setup... but who knows.. I am excited to see the results!! thanks for keeping every one updated Chris.. you are awesome (:

I think you mean when I "add" some timing not "pull" but I get what you meant
I agree, there's improvements everywhere:
1) my stock shorty had 130psi compression in one cylinder from the day I bought the car with 14k miles on it, now I have a fresh shorty with good internals
2) my stock head vs new ported polished with bigger valves
3) my hks 280 cams vs buschur bf 272
again the fact that the AFR went very lean is a good sign, the fact that it didn't knock at all is a good sign. If I could reproduce my cold weather DLL numbers in this warmer weather alone would be a nice 25-30awhp bump at 525awhp. I suspect it'll be able to do that but I never expected much more than that at the same boost level.
I drove it home for lunch and it felt really good and I glanced at the AFR and it's getting closer to ideal. However it's started raining like nuts with standing water everywhere so I may not get to dial in the tune tonight
