Holy 10.5 is going to tank your power. Ive been there. Your cams arent holding you back, its your setup/tune. Idle and cruisin AFR doesnt mean . You need to be concerned about WOT AFR. Shooting out black smoke means you're burning more fuel than needed. Yo should be around 15:1 or so while cruising.

Todd is a master but he needs 100% of whats going on. You are WAAAAY too rich. Honestly thats what is killing you.....and dark04 is my protege

I appreciate it!! I’ll message my tuner and get it addressed. I’ll do that before considering the intake swap and cams. I’ll post back with results. Thanks!

Definitely agree. 10.5 and all those rich symptoms is no good. A little more air will help out.

@Nightfire @Dark04GT
Retuned WOT AFR to 11.4 on Tuesday - power came up and car made 375/370.

I also installed torque box reinforcements upper and lower

Still on 11lbs? I would lean it out just a hair to around 12. That still great progress!

Thanks!
hmm it’s registering at 9.5-10. I told my tuner “how about a smidge leaner?” He told me “no, I don’t want you to blow a block chasing #’s. We had a good jump in power but go run the track first, then we’ll evaluate a leaner tune”
I respected that response lol

I did a pull today - I could feel the difference. Felt awesome!! When that boost hits it’s just such a wild ride to redline
