Default supercharger on and tuned

took the ba xr8 to redcliffe dyno monday had it tuned by steve,went there with 335 rwhp left with 447 rwhp at about 7 psi boost what a difference.only problem is now when you push your foot down in first or second the car revs up so fast the taco doesnt seem to keep up,it hits the limiter but the taco is only on 5500 rpm.

Congrats buddy. Gives me some fond memories of the powerdyne blower I put on my AU XR8 5 years ago.

334rwhp is far from a standard XR8, what else have you done?
Cheers
