It was also suggested that I post on this forum to get some feedback. Any critiques/suggestions would be appreciated. TIA.

I agree with what others have said. Looks like you have a pretty powerful TT but you launched it slowly and granny shifted it. I suspect you have mid-500s whp there. If you are worried about abusing the drivetrain, you should try a 60-130 starting at 30mph in third gear. Make one quick shift to fourth, run her to the limiter and you are done. This will give a clearer view of your whp without variables of launch and multiple shifts.

Boost is unknown. I don't have sport chrono and the dial pegs at 15 psi and won't read any higher. Can a scan tool read boost accurately or any other suggestions? Thanks.

You are producing in the neighborhood of 675-700 crank hp based on your plot. Is this about what you were told the kit would produce? That is a very healthy number for VTGs, imo.
I would love to see a 60-130!!

Looks like a good load of power on the long-acc numbers in 3rd and 4th.

I dont know what to tick to read boost in Durametric. I might just call Todd K and ask what he set it at...

The car feels like it has more to give. I need to tap into it. Hopefully with some data logging and recalibration via Todd K, I will get a few more ponies out of her.

I'll touch base with TK about the boost. I thought boost was determined by what hardware one has on the car? The 675-700 crank is what Todd said I should expect. I am very happy with him. Couldn't be more pleased. I'll see what I can do but 60-130 should be more suited for a novice like me. .
.I'm interested in your 60-130 as well. Good luck.
