2016, Jan 11 - Dyno'd, Driven, Back under the knife.

We hit 518/493 whp at 28-29 psi on the mustang dyno at Infamous, which reads stock STis at 220/215'ish.

I've got it apart already again though, my GTX3576 with .63 AR hotside is a bit restrictive so I'm looking into other options. Considering a Precision 6466 and looking at Garrett options. Would like to keep the T3/4-bolt 3" housing though.

Here's a couple vids from the short period of time it was on the road during the holidays though.
