Default Dyno Tune, Possibly ripped off????help/thoughts
I have a 2002 camaro z28, loud mouth exaust, SLP cold air intake, SLP lid,Slp bellow, high flow air filter diablo sport predator tuner w/custom dyno tune. It dynoed to be 360rwhp/379torque, so they say, but recently a friend of mine was saying that might have blown up the numbers a bit. My car does have 18000 miles on it though so IDK what to think my car has to the wheel. THOUGHTS??

Dyno tuning is for tuning. The numbers are only useful for determining if you're tweaks are making more or less power. You didn't get ripped off. Every dyno reads different. How does your car perform/drive?

more than likely your in the 320 range.My 02 formula a4 full bolt on full exhaust made 351hp and 363tq on a dynojet even though i made only one pull on the dyno.So i think it still has a little more in it.

Those numbers amost sound like their at the crank and not the rear wheels, but that would probably put them too low for a a4 figuring a 20% drivetrain loss.

Sleazy dyno... if its tuned good, don't worry about it - they are just dyno numbers. If you really wanna know, take it to another dyno and hope it isn't sleazy too... Or, better yet, run it at the track and see what the trap speed looks like - that will tell you how much power it is really making...

Tune it on the street, get it dialed in, then dyno it. Don't change a damn thing "on the dyno" if you're using a dynojet.
