i bought my car back in january and havent had a chance to get her to the dyno yet, was supossed to go to harris today (friday) but i had to get an emergency dentist apt...anyway i was really excited to see my numbers and now im bummed i will have to wait till they get another openeing....so im curious as to what you guys think ill put down...heres my mods

01 trans am
Slp flowpack with undercar ram air
pacesetter longtubes
tsp x pipe flowmaster single chambers
ls6 ported heads with competition valve job
comp 918s
comp pushrods
comp cam 224/230 581/589 114

im hoping its over 400, im a n00b to the lsx cars so my number may be way off....lets hear what you guys have to say.....

I'd say 375 rwhp you got a pretty mild cam there man. Not too familiar with your mods either. How hard does she pull ?? Any track times ?

ls1ssws6

havent gone to the track, just bought the car back in january, sorta want to wait to build up the rear before i go to the track....it pulls crazy around 30+ all the power seems to be in the middle and up top...ill post up the dyno sheet once i get it.....what is a better/bigger cam youd suggest?

I would get it dynoed to see where your at. The most important is not the dyno number/track time, but you enjoy your car. I don't think it will break the 400 mark...don't know how much your heads are worked.and bigger cam is not always better. They are some nice cams out there that are "bigger". Do you have a underdrive pulley there pretty good HP on these cars for the money. Be safe and enjoy.

i think you will break 400...if not, it will be darn close

ls1ssws6

yea im not really harping on the number i just am curious plus i wana see where the a/f ratio is at....the car is damn fun to drive and like you said thats all im concerned about....for now once winter comes ill prbably start doin a few little things to her....i wont do another cam until after the suspension/rear end/built tranny are put in then the power adders start

well see hopefully i break 400 ill let ya guys know

I think you should see 400rwhp. That cam alone should have gotten you about 380 and the heads, if the porting was done right, should get you to the 400 mark. Do you have an ls6 intake? Id do some free mods too while you wait to get it on the dyno.

ls1ssws6

just the ram air...no ls6 intake...would it be worth picking one up?

Definately worth picking up an ls6 intake or FAST 90/90.. they are probly worth 10-15(LS6) to 20-30(FAST) on your car... is your car a M6? If it is then 400 should be very attainable.. the only reason you shouldn't have more than 400 is the tune is way off since it isn't a dyno tune... alot of guys pull 400+ cam only, so with your heads you shouldn't have a problem! good luck!

The only thing that might hold you back is the ls1 intake. Ditch that get at least a ls6 intake and ported tb and get a true dyno tune and you will see 400+rwhp..If not just spray it and skip strait over 400 and go to 500

ls1ssws6

yea im gonna see where the a/f ratio is at if its close then i wont bother getting it tuned...if its off then ill get a dyno tune, if i dont need one ill hold off till i get some more power adders....

sorry guys the car is new to me YES it does have an ls6 intake, i had to look again just to make sure lol im trying to stay off the juice till i have the car where i want it to be and have nothing else to do

Well since you do have a ls6 intake you shouldnt have a problem with 400.. and if you dont have a ported tb that would be the next area to go. I had a buddy with a torquer 3 that made 398 with bolt-ons with stock tb, upgraded to a ported tb and went to 406 just keep that in mind.. good luck and your goals

ls1ssws6

may be a stupid question but how can i tell if my TB is ported?

iTrader: (21)

Do a search there are a lot of side by side pictures to show you the difference. Usually ported TBs have thinner wals and seem smoother than the stock ones....

ls1ssws6

thanks...and change your sig picture its creepin me out lol

ls1ssws6

ok so i got back from the dyno and let me tell you guys before i post the numbers. THIS WAS THE GREATEST EXPERIENCE EVEEEEEERRRR just seeing my car sitting on the dyno and hearing her WOT it sounded so good! OK now down to business.....










Best of 408.3hp and 372.8 ft/lb torque

but I had so much fun just talkin to the guys at harris and hearing my car pull it was a great day

p.s. photobucket wont ****** rotate my pictures so ill try again when i get home.
