i got my car tune with the ms4...
well i was disappointed with the result, but this will do for now, i didnt scan it yet i can post it but the numbers are, 385 with 358 of torque, they said its because i have cats and i dont have a pulley but should be around 400hp if i get rid of the cats and with a pulley so well see what happends

Not to mention you still have egr possibly restricting the intake, no ported throttle body, and i can only assume that you have a lid. Some dynos read a little lower than others. Ive seen intake and ehaust LS1s dyno in the 280s. Ive seen one stocker pull 259. Did you notice what other cars were putting down on teh same dyno?

My 230/224 made 395/377 thru intake, LT's, and 3" duals ... now i have cats and a catback & and a pulley ... but haven't redyno'd. But i'd be pissed if i was any lower than 385. Your cam is substantially bigger than mine .. i'd be pretty upset.

is this on a mustang dyno?
and if its on a dyno jet
who did ur tune? I am sure if its not a mechanical problem it must be in the tune. Even when u get rid of cats and installed a pully it wont put the smile on your face. as for a M6, there where couple of small camed motors making 380-395rwhp with a stealth MTI cam and 222 cams and also GM hot cam.
I think with those cam specs u should be atleast 395RWHP and little bit over the 370rwtq.

Like said before, was that mustand or dynojet? I just dynoed my MS4 on a totally stock '00 motor (with LT's, cat's and gmmg) and put down I think 360rwhp on a mustang dyno. Before that it put down 333rwhp on a dynojet.

There's so many variables. So you need to deduce whether the reading is accurate and on what type of dyno. If that all checks out, then you can look at mechanical reasons such as was the cam degreed correctly?
So:
1. What type of dyno was the run on?
2. What rpms did you spin it to?
3. What rpm was the PEAK hp at?
4. What was the a/f ratio?
5. What cats are you running? Most good high flow cats will only have miniumal if any affect at this level of HP.
I also doubt EGR will have any affect at all. A pulley and ported TB would all help, but that may not be the reason behind the numbers.

yeah send a dynograph.. but one of my buddies in his bubble impala only put down about 330 and hes in the mid 12's w/ no weight reduction. he was really upset with the numbers it dynod at but very pleased when he went to the track. dont get to upset with the numbers
