Once the tune is complete, I'll post one up. Maybe catch it on the dyno as well Wednesday. I took it for a drive and noticed it seemed to idle down better and run a little smoother (driveability stuff)) indicating that there is clearly some added back pressure it was needing with as well. May or may not make the previous numbers but would rather it run a little (not much) less aggressive to save on the engine and reduce a possible catastrophic failure.
BTW way your Fox project is looking freaking bad ASS!!!!! It would be a shame to put a hood on the engine compartment. Maybe do a "FOX BODY UNDER GLASS"? Hope you are running it at the street shoot out in April.

Thanks Adam. So far nice.
For the record - Adam ran a baseline pull on the car withthe Brenspeed tune. Before the pull, Adam stated that his dyno was off (low) by 4%. My previous pull at Brenspeed was 473/445, less 4% would make register an estimated 454RWHP/427T on his setup.
The initial baseline on his dynojet yielded 458/428. After his tune was installed and tweaked, final numbers were 479.37 RWHP/446.12 T. So conservatively the car is making 480/446 with less timing and better driveability and idle. I was asked if I wanted more power because he said it was there. I politely declined for now. Next year witha new rotating assembly and rebuilt bottom end, we will punch its lights out, and stepthe boost up to 12psi vice 9psi currently.
Other than adam's tune the only thing changed was the CAI. A JLT 110mm CAI was installed in place of the factory tube and Steeda CAI more for looks than for gains to be honest. I hated that stupid factory ribbed looking tube.
Thanks Adam for the assistance and professionalism.
