I've been spending some cash lately. I put my Stainless Works headers on about 2 months ago. I have been babying the Marauder since. LTH's, high flows cats, 2 1/2 inch custom x-pipe, and into factory mufflers and tips, sounds great. It has been hard to drive and keep the needle on my boost gauge, in vacuum.

I pulled the Trilogy TS off to do some cleaning of oil in the intake and the inner cooler. I put on Musclemerc's catch can and his cooling mod. I'm putting it all back together, with new 60lb injectors, SCT BA 2600 mass air meter, and a JLT intake. I'll get it all cleaned up, load it an the trailer, and head to Michigan on Monday morning. It's almost 1000 miles from Tulsa to Alternative Auto. My appointment is for the morning. I can't wait to hear it go full throttle and drive with my new found horsepower.

With the tune that came in the kit, it dyno'd 396 hp/ 414 tq. I can't wait to see what I have after Lidio works his magic on my car. He guessed I would see 440-450 hp. I HOPE SO.

It's going to be a long trip, but well worth.

I am confused a Twin Screw dyno 396/414 with the mods you have? Isn't that what a Stock + Tril Eaton dynos at?

Was the Dyno a Dyno Jet?

Those numbers were with nothing done, except the Twin Screw. I still had the factory air induction with a drop in K&N. I don't remember if I even had 4.10's at that time. That was not a dyno tune, just the tune that came with the supercharger. I had a local shop put it on their dyno, just to see what it had. 3 pulls were $75. It wound up being about 8 pulls for that amount. I wound up having to drive my car on the dyno, cause they kept kocking it down into 2nd during the runs, instead of rolling into it. They work on imports. No way they were touching the tune.

I do know it ran 12.3 at 110 mph with the Twin Screw, 4.10's, and ET Streets. I'm hoping to hit high 11's Next weekend after my tune.

The dyno was a Dyno Jet.

It sounds about right, when I did a baseline on mine with the LTH, it was around 419, got tuned to 472 on the stock motor, got re-tuned with a stroker motor @ 521, still needs about another 150 @ the wheels.:D

Just finished on the dyno. Going out for a driving test. It hit 458 hp and 463 tq, on 91 octane. There is no 93 octane in Oklahoma. I'm very happy. Lidio guessed with 93 octane, it would have been close to 470 hp.

That's funny. I just added another limited production car to my garage. I bought my wife a 2009 Pontiac G8 GT. She really likes the power it has. I told it's the slowest of our cars.

I just got back in town tonight. I'm going to try to post the dyno sheet in a little while.

G8 might be the slowest but for the cheapest amount of all of them it could be the fastest. The nice thing about them is they can make some great power with minimal mods. Congats on the # on the MM looks good.

Don't spend too much money on the G8 because the Marauder will easily see its tailights. Lol
BTW enjoy your new found power.
