Those #s are just from changing the octane and the tune? Impressive.

Cool , 5* has done what MPT did a little bit ago. I'm only going by MPT dyno, mine hasn't been on one.
What tuner is 5* using?

What does this mean? You think 445 hp is high? I think it's just the dyno. It's reading their 18 5.0's @ 350 whp on 87 octane, so obviously i think it's a little generous. Whether the dyno is high or not, it still gained a little over 100 peak whp.

That's true. Some dunks are generous and this one likely is. A well tune eco can have torque into the mid 5s and up into the lower 4s. That' usually a very aggressive tune on 93 with monitoring required.

Just think...another 200 horses and it'll be where a forced induction 5.0 is. Not too bad!
