    They have since went 10.3. I'm also told this was not done on their 805rwhp calibration, but on a lesser pump gas friendly calibration.

    I think I'll be close to them in hp but the centri is a much more forgiving blower to launch.

    Good luck with that. Tuning is still a mess on these 2015's. Basically none of the speed density parameters are available yet.

    Strange how these cars seem to have low torque numbers. Looking at 800+rwhp you would expect EASY 9 second passes, but I wonder if the torque has something to do with that?

    600+ is still a lot of torque though. That car would be a real hoot to drive.

    Oh no doubt. Just seems like it should be closer to mid 700's give or take.

    I think the "low" torque is because of the high compression the stock motors run. Because it's a twin screw the torque still comes in right off idle, but they can't put much timing into it right away because of the higher compression. I bet the same motor running 9:1 or so would be able to make an extra 100-150 ft/lbs.

    That makes sense.
