Wow so this was done without using SF headers. Boy only if I waited i might have saved over $5000.00 dollars oh well great job and numbers. I can't wait to see you turn so more numbers there. Awesome job I am so jealous on how little you spent to achieve that power. Well I guess it time to start putting mine togther here I am now behind. Later

I don't know. I've got 328 ft-lbs of torque at the wheels on one of my dyno sheets.
If you pulled 328 tq at 6500 rpm then you would make 405 wHP!
How is that not stress testing the stock rods?
Will he be trying to pull those torque numbers with his T28, or is he going to mount the T3/4 first in order to do that?
To the earlier question about return/returnless: That was supposed to be 39# returnless style fuel injectors.
To the question on stuttering: There was no stuttering. THe runs were smooth and with good air fuel the whole time.
BTW these are still using the same NGK TR-6 plugs that I got from SF about one year ago. I'm too cheap to buy new plugs when I don't have to, and they are holding up just fine to the tune of about 8K boosted miles.
To any of you wonder what if feels like:
Imagine being on the dyno and realizing that it only took about 10 seconds to make that 4th gear pull on the dyno going from 2200 rpm to 7000rpm. THat is 10 seconds from about 40 mph to 118 MPH!
Take-off with the 60mm TB is just as normal as it used to be with the 3L N/A, but anything above 1/4 throttle and 3000 rpm and you're starting to fell thrust!!
Driveability is greatly improved now with the new tune, no backfires and fuel economy is significantly improved.
I love it!

Great job Tom (and it sounds like Greg and Chris, too) on an excellent setup! I am DEFINITELY in on the crossover group buy - I have the MSDS headers and am slightly underwhelmed at my power level currently.

Man, this is awesome! I am glad to see the contour guys getting up in the mid 300hp range. I wish I could hit up SZ again this year, but I have a dyno day conflict with the NIssan group. Great work guys.

Nice work War. I have two questions if you don't mind.
#1 - How long have you been running this exact setup? I saw you mentioned something like 8K miles. Is that on this setup? Or was that just the plugs? I'm just wondering how long you've been making this kind of power and whether reliability is effected significantly.
#2 - How do you think the ole MTX-75 is holding up? Are you having an clutch problems additionally?
