It is crazy, especially when 606rwtq means around 750ft/lb at the crank on an auto! 4700rpm sounds very low for an LS, is that all yours pulls? My LS3 goes to 6500 and pulls all the way, so when I say 300rwhp at 2600rpm the power climbs from there not peaks I peak at 5500 but only because the turbo is too small, it still makes good power to 6500. I'll pick up 150rwhp by changing the turbo, but for now the tires can't cope with what it has got
