They did break in the motor before putting the s/c back on. He said that was about 10psi so that's about as much as you can get out of the 2.87 pulley. So I am limited on the amount of power I can make by the s/c impeller speed. I know the motor could take a lot more they say stage 1 is good until about 650 hp. But this way I should be able to drive it all day at the track with no problems. And if I ever want to add TT later or a N20 shot I could.
Wow, those numbers are @ 10psi with a 2.87 pulley?? I'm running 366/300 at just under 6psi with the stock pulley.
Are you running a free flowing exhaust? (HF cats + catback or TD?)

Remember my car is a auto and that is another 5 to 10 % drive train loss. I do have HFC, and Y pipe with cat back exhaust. He said he was right at 390 but he pulled some timing so this might be a very conservative tune. It could have a lot to do with the engine being brand new as well cause new engines don't make full power until there broke in. I don't really know why I am just guessing. Remember its also hard to compare cause each car's numbers were on different dyno's.

Later down the road you could dyno at Corvette's of Dallas, about 15 of us or so dynoed there so we have a good sample, including auto's (which is another good point).

i hooked up my Cobb tuning access port and it's a P0430 TW Catalyst System, Bank 2 . So I cleared it and drove a little last night and it has not come back. I will drive some more today and hopefully it will stay off so I can get it inspected.
