I don't quite understand the line of questioning so I'm not sure what you are thinking but... yes, yes, and yes. I'll probably get out there this weekend.

Once I adjust the shift maps the car will likely be pretty fast in the quarter mile even in it's current naturally aspirated state...the question is go ahead and have some fun racing or spend the weekend getting set up to adjust the shift maps.

I'm willing to wait on the power numbers if it means you'll have software available to tweak the TCU

I adjusted the ECU software to set the slow idle up to 800 rpms so now the car idles nicely even without the ac turned on.

As you probably know, this engine is built for forced induction--the details of which have not been released yet and as such the hp estimates will not be released either. You will hear after the fact--not before.

There has been some dynoing on the cams done by others that I have seen and the powerband looks AWESOME--the best I've ever seen quite frankly. My engine in particular is showing all the signs of being ready to put out big #'s. I will go ahead and start doing some 1/4 mile racing after i change the shift points in the tcu software and I'll share those times. I won't be doing any dynoing until after the car goes forced induction.

Mike when you built the new engine did you replace the cam, crank & timing sensors with new ones?
