Default Does this look about right for my mods?

Well I have a 06' gto. mods are:

torquer v2 cam. "232-234 112lsa".
dual coil springs/hardened pushrods.
vararam cai.
ported intake. "by me".
ported t.b. by professional.
PS LT's. no cats,magnaflow catback.
Speedensity tune. by a good tuner here in KC.

stock clutch, w/83,000mi. and about 50 track passes. but she's getting week.
and I will be putting in a monster level 4 in a few weeks to fix this issue.

Just wanting to see if this looks about right for the mods I have on my car.

car ran a best 12.0 at 114mph. before tune,cai and ported intake/t.b.
then went back and only pulled a 12.2 at 114 dropping to 112mph. by the end of the night... "slipping clutch".

does the graph look okay?


before tune/cai/ported intake/t.b.
and after tune/cai/ported intake/t.b.


Hopefully the new clutch will get me into the 11's...

Looks pretty good. Nice torque curve, this gives me a pretty good idea what I'll gain with my car. Get a clutch in that and run 11's with it. What's the raceweight?

Great numbers! I'm gonna say 11's for sure with the new clutch. Let us know how you like it, I just ordered up a Monster level 3

Nice Numbers, you should dip into the 11's easy without a slipping clutch.

Wow, your raceweight is very close to mine. 3660-3700 depending on the gas. Either your goat is light or my car is heavy, lol. Interested to see what you run, hopefully I can get my stuff on before the fall.

Yeah she has been on a diet. Lighter exhaust.no braces/skidplate. Empty trunk.no
Pass.seat or rear seat. When I had racelights big and littles. She was down to 3420 empty.
Now about 3500 empty on stocker wheels.

Hey Slowhawk question- why do you say that running this particular setup at around 12.0:1 is good for it? (no pun intended, I really am asking because I dont know lol).

I would think that running it at high 12s/ low 13s would yield the most power out of a/f tuning alone (of course there are variables like ignition timing and load to be taken into concideration). Idk, the a/f seems a bit concervative TO ME.

OP- Regardless, awesome numbers and a very well shaped curve! Do you happen to have the SAE corrected #s for these runs?

I didn't say anything on this post but I've always run GTO's and trucks at 12 to 12.5-1 A/F's.This is from extensive track testing.They run faster.Also with the correct timing ect most of the time there is no HP gain on the dyno going from 12-1 to 12.8-1. 13-1 is not optimal on all cars.

Nice numbers. Keep us updated when you get the new clutch.
