Yet again, if you prevent any knocking or obvious misfires, these things are capable of gobs of power, even the older engines that aren't re-inforced.

Thats great man. I'm happy to see some people having success with the half bridge setups. I'll be jumping on the bandwagon soon myself.
I'm with you on the turbo thing. Don't get me wrong 475/383 @23 psi is damn good but I think its got alot more in it, something is choking it.

wow, good numbers , it like a really streetable power curve actually, its got a good midrange. bigger turbo would fix that drop off though
