Since I cammed the car, I have been wanting to try this race again. So far, I haven't found a Scat Pack that will race me. I've tried, but they always decline. Maybe it's because they see me whoopin'...

Got a response from GPI. They only work in STD correction, but they did provide my numbers using SAE correction (453WHP/424WTQ). Observed/uncorrected numbers were 457WHP/428WTQ.

I'm surprised GPI missed these issues. In addition to expertise, attention to detail is what separates the good shops from the bad. I will be sure to look my car over before I start the drive home.
