Default Baseline dyno result.

My 03 Z06 is bone stock and I wanted to dyno her to establish a baseline.

Dyno'ed 351 rwhp/348 rwtq, my AFR was bit on rich side. I'm not disappointed with the numbers, I think it is in the "norm" range of stock Z06.

I am supposed to receive VR/B2 and Stacker today and will install it on Saturday and do another dyno after computer relearn.

Next will the long tubes.

My car dyno'd 358 and 359 with 1100 miles on the car. 356 and 357 with 4700 miles.

I pulled the airbox lid (the zip tie mod) and went to 372RWHP.

350-360 is the norm on Z06s, and the cars are a bit rich from the factory.

I'm not a fan of the VR, as for the LT, I'd look at LGM.

Those numbers look just about right to me!

Good to see you, compadre!

Hey Steve, hope everything is going well for you and your family.

My wife is wondering why I am so willing to run errands for her for past two weeks.

Well, Judy's dad was diagnosed earlier this year with cancer and, unfortunately, he passed away just over two weeks ago now, but at least his suffering is over.

I was the same way when I first got my 'Vette.

Sorry to hear about your loss Steve, but as stated, he isn't suffering anymore.

I was trying to install Vararam this Saturday but I couldn't even disconnect IAT connector from the MAF. It is much different than the LS1 F-Body. I screwed around for about an hour and am pretty embarassed about unable to unplug MAF connector.

Sometimes they're on there very tight. Try using a flathead screwdriver to give it a nudge.
