This is no longer a drop-in setup. I decided to pull the balance shafts, check clearance, and balance the rotating assembly etc... I just got off DG motors dyno dynamics dyno yesterday and made a "safe and conservative" 565whp @ 33psi on E85. Motor was broken in as well as the clutch. Makes peak whp right around 8000rpms and the power is simply amazing all the way to 8500rpms...With almost no "fine" tuning we had a very driveable car and I'm happy with the power. We could've pushed her to over 600whp with no problems, but I'm not about #'s as much as driveability and power under the curve etc..
