Our 2005 did 565hp with stock head bolts. It had our towing twins a TST Powermax, an Edge EZ and a small set of sticks. 65psi of boost on a fairly regular basis.

I dont remember the exact number but with the towing twins being close to their limit it would have been pretty close to 1:1.

I know someone who just put down 750+hp and ran a 11.44 on stock head bolts using the Garmon sequence, and he's running a 62/71/13ss over a s480.

Say it ain't so Joe??? Going the way of the spray???

I think with your WG set to open soon enough and you could stay on top of DP good enough then I think a 200 shot might be ok, but keeping DP in check is the key!!!
