Joe,
Great numbers!
What pulley did you end up using?? 3.4, 3.2, 3.0 ?? By the way its Jeff from SOS so if your wondering how i knew what pulley sizes you had!!
You need to get a header and ditch the Invidia. You'll pick up and extra 20 right there. We have seen good gains from a header, test pipe, and exhaust combos on the S by just swapping to different parts and keeping the boost at the same level. Just my .02 though.
Nice safe tune and im sure you'll be happy. Enjoy it!!

Like RAIN H8R said I had it tuned with the 3.0 pulley. I do have the 3.4 and the 3.2 just in case I want to change things up. I am happy with the numbers that I got. I was also thinking of doing a header to gain a few more hp. The reason I went with the Invidia exhaust is because it is quiet compared to everyone else exhaust. You guys at SOS are great! I would recommend you guys to anyone. Thanks again!

His numbers seem about right?
What does a 10psi supercharger do on stock compression? Certainly less than 400whp, and that effective compression is 18.5:1.
His setup is 9.8:1 SCR and 18psi of boost, which equals a 21.8:1 effective compression ratio.
He is making about 410-415whp (410 at 8800 so slightly more at 9000).
I'd get a header
Enjoy the car!

My perspective on built motors differs from most; I'd build my motor to be safe/more conservative rather than with the goal of making more.
I would build my motor to hit 400whp with a turbo even though people are pushing more than that on stock motors.

Find a new tuner, yes very great power, very great power band, but you didnt have your motor completely built to be "super conservative" I mean these motors are built for power from the factory and you one upped it and had the motor fully built..
But like the one guy said, we are mostly concerened there may be something else wrong or missing because the power level is low for the boost levels..
Its not a personal attack on you, just seems to be something wrong.
Rainh8r..
Why are you selling your ems, i just saw it in the classifieds?
