Full exhaust 03 Z06 Finally got the Z tuned yesterday, well after the issues i had but she is done and runs like a champ. Car made 369/360. I have been hearing that is low for the mods, but I think it is a good baseline. Now I can't wait to get the cam put in and get a new intake for it. Current mods are ARH LT's and X and B&B bullets. I'll get the graph up when I can figure out how to shrink the file. Any suggestions?
I must say, Chris from AMS is most certainly the man. Even though they just recently jumped into the LSX world, he damn sure knows his stuff.

I'd hope that was the problem, otherwise i'm lost. the air out here is never good year round and we don't have a track so I may not know for a long time what it will trap.
Was it a mustang dyno? They typically read about 8-10% lower than a dynojet. That would put you right where you should be. My Z06 put down 359whp on a dynojet when it was completely stock.

No it was a DynoJet. I have a few ideas about it but i have alot of sea time and will be off island for a school for a month so i won't have a chance to test it till the end of the year. I am hoping that I missed a bolt for the headers and everything and i have a leak is all. we shall see though
As mentioned a stock Z will put out around 360 RWHP. Don't forget that you won't pick up much with the aftermarket mufflers over the stockers especially on a bolt-on car. Your gains should really only come from the LTs and X. I wouldn't be too worried about it - in LS1tech style let's see what it does at the track.
