I wasn't really paying attention. I got on the freeway leaving HWY and got a little squirely getting on the freeway and I noticed some halos fly up on me and we had a couple of rollons (if you could call them that, more like me taking the hit and them chasing, so I don't want to say they were rollons because I was just going). It was either white or silver. Didn't pay attention to the rims. Pretty sure he had bolts ons because he did a decent job of hanging, even though I had some major belt slip going on. Either way I was still probably putting down at least 450rwhp-500rwhp through the runs. Still down about 100rwhp pretty sure :fire

58X\556 (basically identical to the last dyno of 576\556 at the trough, 592 peak) Not sure if the sensor is bad on their dyno or what. Got a wideband coming before I drive the car again. So I guess I owe your guy dinner as far as boost because it hit 19lbs on that run.

There was also a big dip on the top, so I gotta figure out what's going on. I don't believe it to be belt slip anymore. Either fuel or spark issue IMO\tune. My guess is with a new tune and the issue nailed out it should be good for 610ish\556. But I'm just going to skip straight to E85 if I have to pay for dyno time and labor.

That makes me almost wonder if it was slipping before, getting hot at high RPM and then "grabbing" the pulley... Ergo a lagging supercharger, that would have made it feel like more of a hit, instead of nice and smooth as a Eaton (read Eaton style roots blower) should be.

Pretty sure the car is going up to IL soon to get setup for E85 at 23-25lbs. So it won't matter anyways. Bob Kurgan will be tuning it.

He takes trips up to Dean's Performance and nails out a bunch of cars on traveling tuning trips.

Most 135s are mid 12 sec cars with all the bolt ons. Some can even crack high 11s with meth and upgraded stock turbos. Mine was a 12 sec car with tune only.
