Did you not expect a little more TQ? I was hoping that we would see 220ftlbs. Not that I'm disappointed with those amazing numbers, I just thought there would be more TQ.

GOOD GODDAMN!  
Those are VERY impressive numbers. The power doesnt drop off ANYWHERE. Thats AMAZING! 
I figured there would be less torque than that. I was expecting around 195ft/lb. Definitely a good thing!

I forgot to ask if all the runs were with the same setup that I saw this morning? Did you change anything from run to run?

Not disappointed at all, 40lbsft at the wheels is around 50lbsft at the crank, and that's about the numbers that Vortech got too. Remember one thing, unlike a turbo, it's not building maximum boost until higher rpms and after all, it's only a 8psig supercharger. If you read about those turbo numbers from the currently available kit, they were using ice water in the intercooler, running 10psig, and other things that were not necessarily mentioned. Not a fair comparison. Yes the turbo will produce more torque, but I would like to see a fair head to head comparison. That said, I can't complain about lack of horsepower now.

As was this morning, no changes. I was more than happy to see the numbers that I was hoping for.

There's never enough horsepower. The more you have the more you want.
