they lock the TC clutch manually on the computer or make it lock at wot.. which it normally is not.. it will raise HP #'s.. but I find it hard to believe an auto cam only will have 400 at the wheels anyway.. I don't believe most dyno #'s anyhow.

take it to the track, see if it runs like it has 358 hp, or better then that....

noone cares what a strong running car dyno's anyway.
