Update, I saw him at another car show this past weekend and now I hear an all new story. The car now has 850rwhp but still does not have a Dyno sheet. He now says his car has a built Lingenfelter stroker motor(not sure what size?), Procharger w/ 8 pounds of boost along with some other bolt on modifications. He also says that he drove the car to Nebraska to have it professionally tuned? I dont understand why he took the car that far to have it tuned considering we live within 20 minutes of Lingenfelter Performance? I told him I would love to see his car on the Dyno and that I would pay for 3 pulls on the Dyno just to see what this car really does put down and he said there is no need because he already knows what it will do on the Dyno. I even asked him about Suspension, Driveshaft, Rearend mods and he said everything is stock except the motor and I laughed becuase what is the point of all this horsepower if you cant use all of it? In my opinion this guy is being stupid, He is giving GM guys a bad name. If someone ask me how much power my truck makes I tell them exactly what it makes + I have the Dyno sheets in my truck to prove it. I am just sick of the Bullshit, Different stories w/o proof.

Okay, as soon as I read the first post you made about this guy I knew he was full of ****. 6 psi on a H&C car getting 600RWHP. Never ever. I watched a guy dyno his built 346 w/ Procharger @ 10 or 12 psi with a 35 shot and made 560-something at the wheels.

6.0 heads on a stock 5.7 would put his CR lower than stock by almost a full point, thus losing a good amount of grunt.

6 psi on a 400+ CI motor, yes.

Easy to disprove this clown. Next time you see him, look for braided line under the car. If there isn't at LEAST some -8 running forward, he is wrong.

It's time to raise the flag on this one.
No way 8lbs of boost on even a 427ci Gen 3 is going reach 800+rwhp. Turbo's are way more efficient than a centrifugal blower and they wouldn't get you to 800+rwhp.
Don't waste anymore time with that guy.
Let him PROVE his results.

I think Mightymouse over on LS1Tech made 800+ RWHP, that was with a stock displacement engine. And an 80mm turbo with a water/air IC. 17 psi.

I am not even sure if this guy knows what he has got in this car, He has probably told alot of different stories and cant keep anything straight, I am for sure calling BS until he can prove it.

Yea I saw it. I will give him props because his car does sound badass but I just wish he would be truthful when he tells me what he has done, I would have alot more respect for him and his car.
