Something seems way off, those are extremely high numbers for that cam on a dynojet, much less it being MD numbers for your supporting mods.

I feel like an echo haha, guess bc I copied and pasted from the corvetteforums.

That sounds right from a intake, headers, and tune alone you should net 400 whp. Hence the exhaust gains and cam your right on track. Congrats!
Add some cylinder heads, and you will have a very healthy running Z!

not even close on your estimates. Cam only 346 cars with this cam are lucky to reach 410rwhp with the LS6 manifold on a dynojet much less a 10-15% lower reading MD. If these numbers are legit uncorrected MD numbers then this car on a dynojet with AFR or TFS heads and a ported fast 90/90 would make 550-560rwhp on a dynojet. Not gonna happen...

Not true.... Most Z06s are in the 380-390rwhp range with just boltons.

Ive seen a 03 Z06 with a MS3 or MS4, I cant remember, make around 450-460rwhp.... Cam only. Some guy posted it on the corvetteforums with a graph. I wanna say it was with a stock ls6 intake manifold as well.... IIRC.

Z's have the ls6 heads stock is why there numbers are higher not to mention a nice cam stock. talked to a guy last night that with a catback, tune, and CAI made like 389 in his z06.

that year z06 has 243 heads with sodium filled valves . put 243s on any aftermarket cam ls1 engine and you would see good numbers .

380-390rwhp is about the norm for a Z06 with all the bolt ons minus Fast 90/90 setup, the key factor here is its DYNOJET numbers. The claim here is them making 440rwhp with bolt ons, and nothing more than a TV.2 or F14 cam with their label on it. Could it be a freak car yes, but dynoing 440rwhp on a Mustang Dyno with the mods listed about without toying with the correction factor = not gonna happen.

its called copy and paste in a couple different threads?

So this Mustang Dyno reads 10-15% lower on average than an average dynojet correct? Or has this 440rwhp been achieved by toying with correction factors?

You are 20rwhp above some of the highest TV.2 and F14 cammed cars but the real kicker is you are 20rwhp above their numbers on a Mustang Dyno vs their Dynojet numbers.

just as an FYI my personal c5 made 380/390 on a MD with corsa catback , cat deletes, z06 cam, ls6 intake and vararam. Tune isnt super aggresive either and no dyno tricks. Adding Lt's. a bigger cam and 243 heads im sure would net me more then 50 rwhp.

This dyno also isnt a happy dyno by any means... same cam in a 98 Fbody made 340 rw unlocked a4.
The correction factor today was .95.

i dont understand why everyone hates on the numbers we make. Ill tell you why the dyno is not wrong. Ill give a few examples of cars with the same cam in it on the same dyno.

04 cts-v kooks,corsa=411hp
98 camaro ebay headers, junk after market rockers stock pulley,tb,intake,converter=347hp
05 c6 kooks, corsa,ported TB, underdrive pulley=455hp
05gto kooks, stock catback with flowmaster mufflers, ported TB=458hp
02 Camaro kooks,magnaflow,underdrive pulley, ported TB,EWP,3600 vig=399hp
99 C5 LG pro's B&B, Underdrive pulley,ls6 intake=380hp(injectors were maxed)

so i dont see how the dyno reads off... i have had some HIGH and LOW numbers from the dyno.

^hope its not rwhp..Well whatever the numbers above, I think it could happen with the vette. Grats on the nice tuning.

Dyno are tuning tools; I did 387rwhp on a MD mustang dyno and my car beat cars that trap above 118-120+mph on the 1/4..n/a

completely impossible. thats it. not gonna happen. i have an 04 ls6 motor in my car, and a vindicator cam which is more powerful than this guys cam. i made 390 hp on a mustang dyno, and its dynojet conversion program gave me 430 hp. i know my car runs great because i hit 120 in the quartermile. i didnt have slicks but 120 is good for high 10's. cant get much better than that in a cam only ls6. so considering this guy claims 443 on a MUSTANG dyno, hed have almost 100 more hp than me on a dynojet. thats just impossible not to mention hed have a 9 second car. another thing to think about is that most really big cams like ms4, trex, and vindicator average about 405 rwhp in an ls1 with stock heads on a dynojet. add the 20 for the better ls6 heads and that gives you 425. thats consistant with my numbers and nowhere near this guys. sorry for the long post it just angers me when this crap is posted.

I think his numbers just fine. Dyno's don't lie. But I can see where you all are coming from. With heads those would be good numbers. Keep in mind he has injectors maybe that's the key to tapping the power of the LS6. He owns a tuning shop so I think he knows what he's doing and talking about. Fran's did that drop your MPG at all or have much effect?

With an aftermarket cam, and better springs, and hardened push rods ( I assume you did all this with the cam install ) why didn't you push the dyno run to at least 6700 or a bit more. You stopped at just before the factory rev limit . Why ?? I too feel these numbers are a bit high. Maybe flywheel horsepower. No way rwhp, especially not on a stingy MD. JMHO. Not hating on a sponsor, you guys do too much for the members, just saying I have my reasons to doubt the claim. Sorry if it offends you in any way.

Any chance this car could be redyno'd on a DJ ? It would probably make 475 rwhp cam only. Just being a bit of a smart ***.
