Well, it would probably be in your best interest to contact the dyno shop also and tell them you want a new graph emailed to you in SAE Smoothing 5 settings. That way you can have an accurate comparison to this tune and what your tuner does for you next time.

Then ask them what the hell they are thinking? Are they still living in the 60's with the STD ratings?

13.6:1 AFR is pretty close to the edge as 69LT1Bird was saying. Did that shop tune you also? I would start scratching my head right about now if I were you.
Mine was tuned by Matt @ SNL in TX. My numbers are SAE corrected, smoothing 5. My STD numbers are over 500.

Your numbers are on the high side, so I would be VERY satified with it. Like others said, maybe its more close to 400 but heh still rocks to hit 400whp on a setup like yours; good small and torquey cam and LS6 style heads and LS6 intake!

About nitrous, not worth it upping the jet for just a number. Youre already on the edge and a bit over for stock bottom. I would lower the shot to 125-150. Better safe than sorry.

Youre on the lean side. I hope your A/F ratio is not around 13 on the jug...whats the ratio on sauce BTW?

My tuner is Matt at TTP and he said I shouldnt up the jet since its a street car..I have a forged rotating assembly FYI.

finally got the numbers converted to sae 414 RWHP 384 RWTQ Getting car re-tuned and maybe changing out stock rockers for rollers maybe i can pick up a few from that. Overall im still very happy with the setup. Its exactly what I wanted easy daily driver great street manors with some power and a nice size nitrous shot just in case!

Ill get my tune worked out and post another graph SAE
I wouldn't think so. There are several guys at my track cam only, or heads and 224 cams running 122-123 with low 400's for rwhp. You should be trapping way higher than that with 600rwhp.

i dont think that trap speed is a fair judgment it wasnt a clean pass at all. I imagine it will be closer to 130mph.
