ok here my update on the dyno results the mods are in my sig minus the ud pulley they couldnt get it on..

Max Power 417.56
Max Torque 367.56

A/F is right on line..

I would post the dyno but i dont have a scanner maybe i can just get it e-mailed from the shop?? ill find out.

im kinda upset my upgrade was only that much power. should I be?? or does that sound about right??

However I still dont have my car because the front of the engine is leaking and have very low oil pressure on idle.. they think its the new oil pump.

that weird cuz i just added the ls6 stage 1's to my f13 and i gained 10 rwhp. technically 20 but i also did 410's. i did 399rwhp 383rwtq cam only and 409rwhp 383 rwtq after the heads and ud pulley. im seriously debating ordering the ms4 this monday. and yes it was tuned and a/f was also solid.

Was the car tuned on a dyno jet or a mustang dyno?

I ment 1slowls1

I think NEDyno has a mustang dyno and that might be one of the reasons for the lower numbers. BTW kevin is an excellent tuner so you are all good in that dept...

they have the dyno jet

and i am not worried about kevin tuning my car i just thought the something was a little weird with what i thought was low numbers..

the hp and tq both seem to be low, around 20 hp/tq low.was that on straight 93 octane ?do you know what the timing at max hp/tq is ?

No I wasnt there, I asked them to call me and let me know when they were goin to tune it so i can be there for it, I ended up calling them around 2 and they said they were almost done, I was kinda mad at that. Yes it was on 93 octane, however the temp while tuning was around 88* and a bit muggy but I doubt that was the problem. Because I was not there during the tune I dont really know any of the timing or anything.

Honestley with all that work and time you've spent on the car I would bring it somewhere else and get another tune. Just my opinion

The Tq numbers are what get me. They just seem REALLY low. We did a 00' M6 with a TSP 231/231, Patriot 5.3L heads and other bolt ons. He was around 420/380 and IMO his tq is low as well. Not to make anyone mad, it just seems that the TSP cams don't make a whole lot of tq.

Don't be mad a t them.I wouldn't of called you either if I did the build. When tuning you don't really need the customer there seeing the #'s as they progress.It's aggrivating as a tuner.
I've also noticed TSP Cams lacking alittle in torque sometime's,but if the heads are lacking midrange flow that could hurt midrange.

Im not really mad at them, its just when they say there goin to call and never do I end up having to call them its a little annoying. Yes that what ive been hearing lately about TSP cams also.

dynocar

Unless a customer does a baseline before the mods, they really do not know how much HP/TQ they have gained with mods. Car to car, dyno to dyno variances can stack up for or against them. I can understand your dissatisfaction with them not calling if they said they would and should have. Beyond that, customers usually get a much better tune when they, or worse yet, and their friends are not present. Tuning envolves a lot of concentration, especially if something isn't going right, like software issues. A tuner has a certain time window to tune in, never enough, and the more deticated tuning time he gets, the better the tune. Once I have had a customer's friend follow me around while I was tuning, asking me a lot of questions about their personal car, very distracting. After bringing it to the attention of the customer and no action was taken, this customer could have had a better tune.

Mill the heads to bring the compression up--the dynamic compression is very low with TSP's cams. Then advance the cam 4 degrees to further help this. That will bring the torque way up and probably help the top end slightly by bringing the intake valve closing down to optimal for the LS6.

Couldn't have said it better.

With the cam that he is using would he beable to mill his heads without having to flycut the pistons.

JakeFusion

Depends on the valves in the heads, the LSA and any advance ground in, and the free drop of the valve in the heads. If he has stock valves with some additional free drop, he can probably mill the heads a good .030" without much problem, but the only way to know is to measure.

Cutting the pistons isn't that hard and is a very good way to get your combo set up ideally.
