Default Lt1 Sts 383 preliminary dyno numbers

I know i dont post on here much, but i have been building my car for a year and 4 months now, and finally am gettting around to having it tuned. The engine is a fully forged 383 at 8.2:1 compression. The car has a base tune and thats about it, timing is 26 degrees, so theres a lot left.



The reason that it only goes to about 5000 rpm is because my wastegate was blocked off, he lifted at 13 psi.

Not bad... get the bugs worked out and you should make some decent power. What size turbo?

I started tuning the car with tuner pro, but ended up getting an excel computer for it. And I plan on turning up the boost, but for now im going to run on 8 psi, i kinda have to learn to drive again, I have been driving my dads 76 chevy.
