today we put the car on the dyno to get some baseline numbers.

with a start up map, NO TUNING AT ALL the car put down 371whp 319tq..
timing was at 9-10 deg and a/f ratio was 10 flat across the board.

next week, after some wiring issues are fixed i'll play with the tuning a bit.

I am liking the mounts and traction bar setup. Out of curiosity, what would he charge to make another duplicate set? Also what tranny are you using?
