Just to double check, you're still running a 2.5 exhaust with a big maggie right? Does the muffler exit into 3 inch piping or is it just straight 2.5 throughout?

Great numbers. Solid setup.

very similar to my ex 2560 setup powerwise. Only difference I hit 200wtq 300rpm earlier. Probably due to vvt, manifold and 3" exhaust.

Were you running the same amount of boost he is? Honestly, I'd have expected the difference to be higher!
Or was that before you swapped over to Kraken?

thats before the Kraken and EFR stuff.

i was running a 2560r and AVO cast manifold, 2.5" downpipe, 3" catless exhaust and vvt. boost about the same, maybe ~1 psi higher or so.

great numbers! Post your timing map, I always like to see what people are doing with timing. Im running the same turbo but with a FM manifold. Glad it turned out so well for you, I bet the car drives great!
