Tom, when your car goes to Stillen, make sure they do before and after dynos, not just 'after', so you can compares apples to apples. My experience is that stillens dyno is optimistic and you may already be making 410 hp on their dyno.

Also, the 106 lb/ft increase in torque is not apples to apples. The baseline was done at 95 degrees with 25% humidity, compared to post supercharger run done at 65 degrees and 35% humidity. The DA of the baseline is 2437. DA of postsupercharger run is 471. That's going to be worth 20-30 hp right there. They could have deliberately heat soaked the car or ran baseline with hood shut, then post supercharger with hood open, or a bunch of other tricks to tweak the results. Food for thought.
