6 bolt heads?

My wife wants you to know that I am a MUCH bigger dumbass than you....so I win......err...wait what?

After seeing how it ran...was there ever any doubt? Just cause it took Jamie 3 years to do it doesn't mean anything.

We're not done yet.

So you clearly need a boost gauge...it's a requirement on a Forced Induction car....then ask them how conservative the tune was. If they just wanted to set you up with a conservative street tune that wouldn't blow you up and have you blame them for it then there is probably a lot of power left.

Ask them what the timing and AF ratio was set at.

So full exhaust, blower cam, 2300 blower, DR's, 3200 converter.

I'd check over shift points, short shifting can cause low mph. LMR guys (Josh, Steve) are very knowledgeable, I'm sure Josh would give you his thoughts on what to look at.

That is def no gd. I've never had that happen, ever. Your first step should be to have someone review your tune. Then go from there.

Not a worry. It'll clear up and doesn't affect your run. The Stabilitrack lights have to cycle. Basically, they're glitchy.

I'm running 10.8's at 127 or so, and I'm around 600rwhp.

If you're running 11.3's @ 118 with 537rwhp, hate to say it, but the only thing off is your MPH, which is explainable by 1) Maggie heat soak, 2) Houston heat soak.

I don't see a 10-second slip in your future with this set-up in a Houston summer.

It could mean a lot of things and no one can tell you what it is from here. Im with Jamie it shouldn't be coming on going down the track. I doubt it's anything major and the system is a pain and glitchy like padre said. I still would take it to who ever tuned it and tell them to find out why.

I bet the car is pulling timing at the top end.

Another opportunity for a Maggie max package!
There is a wall these maggies hit, a blower plate can get you over it.
Tackles heatsoak, and gives additional plenum volume for the big end.
