Default Getting a dynotune this weekend. What should I expect?

I have a 2000 Z28 with an A4 and mods are as followed: Kooks 1-7/8" long tube headers, 3" ORY pipe, Loudmouth II catback, LS6 intake, ported stock TB, under drive pulley and Whisper lid with K&N.

Do you think it has potential to hit 340rwhp?

A nice bill for not purchasing a tuner youself? I'm guessing 350hp+

Place is probably going to use HPtuners or EFI live, so he will be good.

according to manufacturers:
K&N +37HP
Headers +25 HP
Ported TB +Intake +15 HP
Most hand held tuning devices +35 HP
Underdrive pulleys +10 HP
No cats +10 HP

Watch out!

(PS Japanese engine, subtract 35 HP)

Kelp, you are correct in your numbers but the K&N will give me 36.5 horsepower, not 37 horsepower. Only ricers round up!

I do not have catalytic converters and still have the stock stall converter but that will change in a few months.

Thanks for the estimates thus far. I am still not certain on if it’ll be tuned this weekend but hoping for the best. If it is, I’ll be sure to post up my numbers along with the graph.

Did you run your 12.2 with that set up?

make sure your tuner knows when u go to make ur pulls to see how much u can get out of it that the converter is locked up.
