Just finished re-tuning Dimetri's 2010 Camaro. Motor is completely stock except for a valve spring change and flow master mufflers. Pump gas and meth. 16lbs of boost. 14 degrees of timing. Customer wanted the 800+ dyno,but will run lower boost on the street.:D

That's what we told the customer. Keep the boost down and it will live longer.

Eh,...Sick by the way,...but, I think the motor, if well treated, could live longer then you'd think @ that level.
Very nice.

The customer reported back to us that the motor is still running strong, he has been running many 1000cc bikes roll racing and beating them. Only one problem he can't run the car at low boost because it feels to slow, he's now running @ 17lbs. Customer planning to build forged motor over winter. We have another customer with a ls2 and stock 317 heads running 21lbs completely stock bottom end. Three years hard beatings 740 rwhp.:cheers:

Not sure why everyone thinks stock LS motors can't handle gobs of power and live for many years :bang:
Must be noobs or have bad tuners?

What kind of chokemaster mufflers is on the car? Hopefully not the chambered ones.
Rob@ChampionMotors

Yes, car came in with chokemaster chamber exhaust. :(

If those mufflers weren't on there it might be better off.
This is very impressive. I have a customer that is inquiring about a turbo kit for his 5th gen. This will get him motivated for sure.

What kind of dumb ass asks for 16lbs of boost just for the Dyno, then has the boost lowered so he can drive it home? I hope you charged him twice for both tunes.
Kudos to Champion Motors for tuning 16lbs of boost with no pre det or engine parts sticking out of the hood.

Obviously he wanted to see what it would make at that boost & then a safe tune for the street, so wtf is your issue?

It's silly.
The only reason he would do it is so he can post bigger rwhp numbers than what he is really running.
Dyno drag racing is getting very popular so your right I shouldn't be slamming someone for the way they race. I get pissed when somebody slams me for street racing, to each their own.

The customer at first wanted just the dyno number for bragging and to see potential of kit, but he hasn't been able to run at lower boost he said it feels to slow. He has run all summer at 17-18 lbs and was going to put in a forged motor in this year, but motor is still running strong he has beaten many 1000+cc bikes roll racing. :)

I am sure we all agree the stock motor was never intended to see 13 or 16 psi but with that said and to directly address the statement. It takes virtually no HP to run the turbos at 16psi short of better valve springs to prevent float which some could argue takes power. A Kenne Bell, Whipple or Maggie all take upwards of 100hp or more to drive them at that those pressures as well as added crank side loads.

Motor is still running strong. A lot has to do with the tune and meth injection to keep this motor a live.:D

Customer reported back to us still running strong with lots of WOT. We have dozens running over 18 psi with stock rods not one bent.:D
