Black with stripes. All options. Metco pulley, accufab tb with tune done by brenspeed. Only dyno at 565 hp. I think the pulley is 2.8. Seems like should be more power. I called them and they said 60 hp additional was about right????

Welcome & Congrats!
With a pulley, T/B and tune you should be in the low to mid 600's. Do you have a pipe? Enjoy the new drug :lol

565 RWHP as measured on one dyno where presumably you don't have the "before" number, may not be bad at all and I wouldn't worry about it. The Accufab TB but it's not going to do anything for HP on an OEM blower. It DOES look good, however. A custom tune could likely yield a few more ponies should you ever have the itch... or you could jump to a Whipple or TT's!! Welcome aboard!

i GPS'D 212 mph with the Whipple 2.87 on the stock supercharger and a 100 octane tune.
the boost figure is very accurate as that is what my car had with a MMP cat back X-pipe. never dyno'd it though....
welcome to the site Stuart :cheers

They did a before baseline dyne and pulley tune added about 65hp. You think that's about right? And, your right. The accufab throttle body is nearly a work of art. Beautiful!!
