This thread is completely being hijack. From reading the forum, I definitely would put some weight on what Rich will suggest and say. I would also read what everyone say and evaluate for yourselves. And it is never a problem for asking questions, even the expert has to continuosly improve by asking.

As for Nu-tek, I am really impress with Nick. The only problem I see that anyone may have is that he sometimes gets really busy and take a little bit longer. But that is because Nick is someone who seems to be completely involved and focus on what he does to make sure it comes out first rate and not rush to do a second rate job. You can see that the moment you talk to him. Eventhough he is busy, the moment you get him on the phone, he will be completely focus on you without any distraction and that is what he does on your engine. In terms of experience, he has been builting racing engines for over 20 years and couple to his character, I would highly recommend him. At the minimal talk to Nick, Bret, and any one you can.

In terms of number, I have a supercharged setup so may not be what you are asking. Currently I am making 500rwhp at 6# of boost without tuning at all, and leaning out at 5000rpm. In a week it will be tune and see 11-12# of boost with 72#/hr injectors and LJ's impedance converter. Then I am hoping for 600-650rwhp.
