To add to it 110+ WHP is with just the SC and opened up exhaust ( hi flow cats, no 3rd and a ATLP CB ). I wasn't running meth or injectors or even a Fic much less the J&R ECU, just the Comptech black box. With the options now available the SC isn't going to disappoint.

thats why i started my 2012 S/C build thread. (its in the sig)
Problems everybody had before are things of the past. New tuning options, new ideas, all came from the past year's needs to improve what we had at the time. All it takes is one problem and someone with an idea to fix it... Rodney for one with a PnP turbo AND the MS3 ECU solved 98.7% of the "need for reliable speed" problem lol

I have an 04 MT with a CT Supercharger and a J&R ECU, otherwise completely stock. I made 270 WHP and 240 Tourqe with the J&R ECU. I had the car tuned before the ECU was installed and I made 255 and 225 respectively with the CT piggyback. I am in Denver, so elevation of 5280 was a factor. The car was tuned on a superflow windyn dyno (same dyno both times) with STP corrected WHP. I dont have too much other info, as I didnt tune the car, but I can answer some question so feel free to PM me.
I forgot one thing, I made 210 to the wheels dead stock on the same dyno (for comparison purposes), I believe the torque was 195.

Definitely not going to dissapoint but there is much more attainable HP with a Turbo and no belts or SC oil to change. Although these are not the worst things to have to do, still if I had the $$ and right car now I'd go Turbo.

He stated in the F/s thread that he only made 270/240 with his setup.. a fully bolted TL makes more than that..

I Pm'ed him to see if he has any insight on the tuning or problems he might've ran into. Hopefully he does.
I had all of those exhaust parts on order and they took over 2 months to come in from HT (mainly because of the ATLP Quad), good thing I canceled the precats, J pipe and test pipe before they shipped.

Sorry but these last 4 posts are confusing the shit out of me. What mods were installed when those dyno pulls were performed (difference between the first and second?)?

@InFaMouSLink where are you getting those numbers and what car are you talking about? Can you make your post a little clearer please.

Thanks.

Ahhh thanks, I thought I was keeping up with this thread but I guess I haven't been, and those posts got me a little jumbled up. Also, I probably could have started at #83 lol

Thanks again though.
