I was planning on going out through the headlight. After I started mocking up some cardboard for it I changed my mind and looked for something easier. This was it.

Taking the air filter off on the dyno was worth 8hp. I figure this should do a little better than that, especially at 130mph.

Do you have a cam, intake manifold and/or boost creep? That is a very nice torque curve.
