The car with this power is capable of running 10's. That is incredible for a heavy family sedan.

Where are you getting this? At no point is the stock tune making more power?

But anyways, that is unfreaking believable. I mean really, 620/670 hp/tq to the WEELS with nothing more than a tune? That is legitimately twice as much power as my JB4'd 135 and my car is freaking fast. Nuts.

I know the numbers are staggering, but the hp/torque curves actually look the best for the stock M157 tune withOUT the performance pack. I would prob stick with that - it's the most efficient use of the engine's power, tranny and drive system.

when u start jacking the numbers way high by just increasing the boost, u lose a lot of the linearity of the power increase. I would rather invest the money in a car with better tranny, tires, wheels, ??AWD, anybody??
