Thanks, will post some after we shoot it. One cool thing came from the owner of CompuShift after tuning the transmission. He said "the car is crazy fast..."

Crazy fast is good, yes? This car will be more tame than the vid NRE has in the 1st gen Camaro won't it? That thing was just wheel spinning crazy!

Well, we don't have the 'final' rubber on yet, i.e. the M/T 345 DR's.
So... there will be traction issues.

Holy crap, how much fun could be had with stock tires and 1600+ hp?

And let's not forget that my car has a part form SST on it. Just sayin'

No matter what tires we have, we wouldn't be able to crank it past probably 20 psi since it is not on a prepped track. We figure we can set the boost up to the level it starts spinning at 140 mph (Note: This is NOT being done on open streets !!) That will give us a decent boost map level with some good loading in high gear. I can then use these maps to extrapolate the higher boost level maps when we start track testing. You have to remember we have already done a lot of the mapping using the DTS engine dyno since it has the ability to change load (stuff you really can't do with a chassis dyno).

This effort is to tailor it to the particular characteristics of the torque converter, tranny, differential and gear ratio. I will try to do a little programming lesson video with the AMS-1000 since so many on here have now chosen that for their builds.

I would damn sure like to see that. With us 'Forum Rat Power Level' guys it's more just push the gas and go.
