First Dyno - look okay? Took my Z28 for it's first ever dyno today to get a baseline read before the new year when I plan to fit some American Racing LT's.
It's a 2001 Z28 A4 with 2.73's and 50k miles and is stock apart from a lid and GMMG catback. Was hoping for at least 300rwhp, but didn't quite make it
298.3rwhp/310rwtq
It was a Dyno Dynamics, but don't know how they compare to the Dynojet, which seem more popular on here.

Thanks, I'm glad it looks okay. I only quoted the dyno make because from having read through a few post here it looks like some read much higher/lower than others so I thought that info would be needed for someone to judge if my results looked about right.

One of the graphs I was given also shows my air/fuel ratio. The guy doing the dyno said it was a little rich, but thought that was to be expected on a stock car. He also commented that it was good that the plot was pretty flat and smooth.
If you haven't noticed, I'm in the UK so I wouldn't expect the dyno guy to be that experienced or knowledgeable on how LS1's should be running. Therefore, I'd be more than happy to hear any comments you guys might have on how my afr reading looks. I'll try and describe the plot...
Up to 3k rpm it ranges from 12 to 12.2 then sticks almost dead on 12 from 3k to about 4.5k, before edging gradually down to reach 11.8 as the plot ends at 5.5k rpm.
