Pretty sure 8.8x's is his best so far. Car is pretty sick for a full weight automatic car with stock converter.

True, thankfully there should be a CAI with it here soon.

It's been a while and I am not sure where I read it but I recall some significant gains to be had with an improved intake setup and some enlarging of the throttle body area.

I believe there is a pulley size limitation as well which means you are going to be stuck at a certain level of boost.

This is where the Roush and Whipple designs shine.
