Default 98 Formula Dyno numbers

I just got back today from the dyno and I guess im happy with the results.
I made 334hp at 5500rpm and 344tq at 4500rpm. With the mods in my sig does this seem ok, and is it normal for it to start dropping off so early? I thought I would still be making power until around 6. What do you guys think? and it was on a dynojet

ok, thanks for the input. Is my car supposed to be falling off at 5500? I thought it would still be making power until around 5800 or am I wrong? The car shifts at 6k.

Well are you an auto or 6speed? Autos dyno lower than a 6 speed. Decent numbers. Don't mean too much. When I dyno'd my car at 344/355, I could of went down the road and gotten 10-15 more hp/tq due to a higher reading dyno. You are just where you need to be.

Oh and my car did the same thing as you. 5500 was were the most hp was. I went from 344 at 5500 down to 334 at 6000 rpms. Once I get my cam installed I will be making power up to about 6300 or so. Hope this helps man.

well as far a other bolt-ons you can do an electric w/p, MAF, cutout. But honestly i wouldnt waste my money on the first two I listed. Oh yeah, rocker arms too. But for that price range you mine as well get a cam
