that's what I thought but after 6 pulls and and it not even losing any power I could argue the numbers. I would have thought for sure I would have had to have a cammed car and other mods to put down that much

Although dynos can vary quite a bit, and different dynos vary as well, I've usually seen around 420 or so on the average. That's on a dynojet dyno btw.

my next two mods were going to be a pro comp cam and either a axle back exhaust or cat back exhaust a catch can and a ported throttle body maybe a v-max I wonder what kind of quarter mile time it would post with a good set of drag radials as is with 438 to the rear wheels

With just adding some dr's and keeping all else the same you could probably pull off low 12's or so I'm guessing

I honestly thought getting into the mid to low 12 second range would require much more work on this 2010 Camaro ss ls3 m6 I am sure driver skill will also play I big role in the e/t but I have enough seat time at the drag strip with other cars I drive that maybe I can pull it off. Not sure what kind of drag radils to get to mount on the stock wheels was looking at the nitto 555 but might be better to get some with more rubber on the ground

Got an e-mail from tuner friend say,s my cars dyno pull also got posted on kooks headers and exhaust page went and looked poof there is was
