Power, torque, and cost figures are community- and shop-sourced estimate ranges — not guarantees. Results vary by chassis, supporting mods, fuel quality, ambient conditions, and tuner calibration. Validate with your shop before buying.
Method
How the numbers work
- Hand-curated Stage 1–3 dataset only — no auto-generated power curves.
- Ranges reflect published dyno results and reputable tuner stage menus.
- Parts pricing is vendor-style bands; labor uses your editable hourly rate.
- Public content stays product-forward. No founder-named build stories.
Supported vehicles
Launch scope is B58 only. N54, N55, and S55 stay off the board until this path earns trust with real planners.
