So far the truck made 486rwhp/498rwhp with no meth injection on 91 octane. Had it up to 504rwhp but once the truck starts getting hot it would ping so the tune was backed off a bit. Turned the meth on and it dropped power by about 40hp so there's some playing around to do.

Nice numbers! Still makes me a bit disappointed that my Lysholm plans fell through in 2011; this 6.2 would be mean as hell with that unit on top.

Not quite. That was supposed to be me, but the last e-mail back to Lysholm/Vortech R&D (after we had established that I was in, just needed to confirm dates to drop off the truck) failed to send from my old phone and went to my outbox without my knowledge. Instead of e-mailing me again, they moved on to the next guy on the list when they didn't get a response from me, and it took almost a week until I found out the e-mail didn't send. When I found it and immediately sent them another one, they said it was too late

The guy they ended up working with did come on here; they basically installed a full Camaro kit on the truck with the Vortech centrifugal airbox, and after they tuned it, he was somewhere around 400rwhp. That would've been an animal in my truck once I took it to Justin to get sorted out though. They also took a full month longer than they had said they would, so it would have been seriously inconvenient for me as far as timeframe without my vehicle goes.
