IAT were around 103 on the runs. Intercoolers are doing their job. It was 93F in the shop.

And if you think i'm dissing you or your car,...not at all man. Decent numbers but, you've got alot more capability, even though i'm sure it runs great now.
Youre right Im sure more power can be made with a leaner tune and removing cats but Im happy the way it is and dont wanna mess with anything right now.

Now that lambos are becoming more affordable their has been alot more crazy builds on them. Geez you can get a gallardo for 100k, UGR just dyno'd 1307whp. And the new gallardo(lp560) is a force to be reackon with stock, no more 115traps.

But yeah most exotics arent really that impressive unless you have a chic in the car or they have a chic in their car .

Nice. You've got a rare aps setup that has low IAT's then my man. They're usually not very low.

Although I do run no cats,...my car is the farthest thing from lean that you could imagine. What are you using for a fuel system?

For every 1300hp lambo,...there's 47 1200hp vettes,...176 1200hp vipers, 38 2000hp vipers,...2million 1300hp supras....etc etc. There a relative rare sight. Now, luckily for myslef, as well as broward dudes,..doug levin is right around the corner from me,...and he built the first TT LP640. So, the chances of US running into one, is pretty good now a days but,.... again, unless it's a TURBo car,...you know as well as I do it's no big deal...for example...

One of the best videos of what a bolt on vette is capable of.

To give you an idea of how far we are from leaning on Smooves car to make that power, he is running 10.5:1 A/F at WOT, and a whopping 12* of spark at WOT. No amount of detuning would bring the power down, had we leaned on it a bit and leaned the A/F and added some timing there is no doubt in my mind that we could have seen well north of 825-850 rwhp, even at 11 psi.

Really?

We ran 42#ers in Smoove's car when he was making 615 rwhp with the procharger, and we only saw like 85% DC, at 11.2:1 A/F.

At your current power level there's no reason you should not be able to lean that out to mid 11s and pick up quite a bit of free power....how much timing are you running right now?
