Smarty on 9 TST competetion on 4 i put 427hp to the ground with 790tq. Not sure how much the elevation plays with the numbers. Also heard from a few ppl that they dyno was reading lower #'s than other dynon runs ppl had made with the same mods. IDK it was my first run. If i run elswhere same settings and higher #'s i'll post them up.

I am going to guess 390 to 430 rear wheels. To breech 500 + you need serious upgrades (studs, springs, turbos, methane, injectors, intercooler, cam and so on...)
