833 isnt too bad for it going through a c4. I figure from talking to other guys that I am losing 18% through the tranny on the Dyno, that would put me @ ~980 hp @ 7500. 980 hp @ 20 psi I think it pretty good for a motor that only makes 350-375 on its own. When we get it dialed in a little closer, and get to 8500 and 30+ psi it should be 1200+ at the crank. This was our first real dyno time where we had all the right parts. We have a nasty cam that we are going to put in the car that should help out also.

Side note, for safety we had the AF @ high 11's with 123 octane fuel. I think we can get it to high 12's safely and see what power it makes then. This is the fun part of racing, tinkering and searching for horsepower.
