Also a key point to note is the over 600 number was a fifth gear pull. The fourth gear pull, which is what most of us report, was 589 if I recall properly.

Edit - Again not knocking just trying to point out differences that could account for a high number.

Z1 3rd gear pull at 10+ PSI healthy is good enough for me. If the dyno says 500whp and not 580whp i'll be just fine.

WE all know 10+ PSI VQ will out run 90% of anything on the street, and like I said. "That's all we care about when it comes to power."

Yeah I was on 93 octane. And my forth gear pull did hit 589whp but I'm pretty sure it was less then 9.5 psi. I don't remember. If anything it was at 9.3-9.5 psi.

I wouldn't think z1s dyno reads that much higher. I've seen a lot of single turbo and twin turbo guys on dyno days at z1, and they actually made less whp then where they had got thier car tuned at originally.

Then again there is a lot of variables that can determine the outcome at the time. I'm sure if I take my Z back in a few months the number will drop to average whp.

It does. It's been a topic of discussion around here for a long time. Not taking anything away from them or your build since dynos are only tuning tools anyway, and we're only talking about a ~20whp difference on a 600 whp car. That's what, a 3% difference? Either way it's fast as hell.

Didn't know it's been a topic for that long LOL
But agreed, I don't really care for numbers so much. Just really love hearing the turbos spooling and how hard the car pulls whenever I get on it. AAM did a great job with these turbo kits.

but it's more like 95%
