Well there's gonna be the people who find the pully that maxes it at 7400, then there's gonna be the turds that complain that they will lose their warranty if they run that pully with a 8k redline, kinda like what you just did...

I also believe vortech just realeased an upgrade path to a 65,000 max rpm from 53,000, for all those turds that had the 2.87 pully and wanted to raise there redline to 9k.
The 2.87 spun to 53k. Blower would only handle 50k... Just to make sure that was clear haha. Also it sounds like that dyno was on E85 as the post above says +125WHP on E85...

Although I did a quick photoshop overlay over a dyno of mine on E85 (i am running just a tad more boost than them) and the low end seems like it may be more promising.
