Sounds good. mine is making 222rwkw on 10 psi, if I lower the comp ratio it would make more power,had the same problem when I put a GT45R on my Gen 3 VT SS.With this power level it is really starting to tax the driveline in my ute. One week after getting the car tuned the box started to whine very loudly. I thought is was bearing noise, but it turned out to be the hard facing onthe input and cluster gearset was getting worn off by the tourqe of the engine. I had the box rebuilt only to have it destroy 3RD gear and then the rest of the box 3 days after the rebuild. Note to the people who want to do this conversion= use an auto as the std T5 is way to weak.

Cheers RC
