Hills Garage ~500 WHP out of a Vortech with ease
Thought i'd post my latest dyno numbers up and give a big THANKS to Frank Hill from Hills Garage in MD and Frank Smith from TuningTech FS in MD. Frank Hill put on some Momentum headers and fixed a few issues with the car, then Frank Smith worked his tuning magic and pulled 504WHP out of my factory internal VQ on the very first pull. The 500hp pull was without any timing modification and without perfecting the fuel maps, and we feel we could have pulled 520 easily if the motor was built. We ended up bringing the rev limit down a bit and playing with timing to bring the torque numbers down to a safe level for the VQ. Previous tune was 420WHP, left yesterday with 490HP and 397TQ at ~11 PSI. I can't say enough about Frank and Frank2, well worth the trip and sitting in DC traffic wanting to blow my brains out.

I dont know much about vq's, but I seem to hear that the vq35's are pretty weak.
