HELP! Where is my hp?
On a dyno jet I made 380hp and I don't know how much torque. I've asked them twice to email me my dyno sheet and I still haven't got it yet. Mod list
230/230 .613 .591 111+2
TFS (as cast) 220
LS6 intake
Qtp lt's
Ptc 3500 stall
Slp lm1
3.73
Lid
Walbro 255
What could possibly be holding me back?
Stock injectors? Car throwing knock sensor code? (I don't know if it was on the dyno as my tuner didn't say anything but my light was on and the next day orielly code reader showed it). I'm running the shim / pushrod kit from thunder racing and maybe I goofed something up there? I really don't know. I'm no engine building expert so I'd like some advice from you guys. Car ran 11.6 @ 116mph w/ 1.6 sixty.

They told me my injectors were at 90% but my car needed an intake and I'd break 400hp. I just figured a h/c car would make 400hp through an ls6 intake all day.

Whats the DA in missouri? Does he have a similar car to compare your numbers to? Was this # Locked? What correction?
IMO you should have maxed those injectors out.. Is this a well known tuner?

Im not sure the DA but it was 90* that day. Converter was locked I'm assuming since he didn't say any different. He tunes alot of stuff that make tons more power than mine. This was through a 10bolt.

I ran an 11.5 @ 120 with 1.7 60' in 2500 DA with 480rwhp - some of it's the setup (getting it to the ground), some of it is driver, and some of it is power. The Cam-only cars running mid 11's could be stripped out race buckets like some guys I know, or maybe they just found fantastic DA... can't really say.

who wants to be told "your setup sucks" when ur there to get tuned ...? I sure wouldnt - id say get some injectors and a hotwire kit and see how it is when its retuned. But some ppl dont have that kinda money, especially me lol
