Default Stock 01 LS1 with only a lid
We put it on the dyno, she made a hefty 298 rwhp. After some adjustments she picked up 42 rwhp. I have owned about 20 f-bodys and not one of them has dynoed 340 rwhp stock, it's an automatic so it has roughly 20% drivetrain loss. Which puts the flywheel hp @ 408.

I will, as soon as I put the 3:73s in it and put drag radials on the car.

The dyno is legit, I would only be bullshitting myself if it were not. I was very shocked myself. The dyno is a stingy bastard, but I guess it was free giving with me.

I'm taking my car to that tuner! LS-6 power from a LS-1. Putting a lid and coupler did seem to make quite a difference on my LS-1 Camaro. It was probably more seat of the pants feel than any other single modification I have done on any car I have owned (with the exception of nitrous). You should run it the way it is for a baseline.

+1, that's bolt-on LS1 power this guy is putting down. Something has got to be up with that dyno or some MAJOR "adjustments" were made.

Even 311 would also be fantastic. I really don't want to irritate the OP though, as the dyno and the tuner here seem to be in question. I had a guy at a car show tell me his 6 speed LS-1 Camaro with 2.73's turned a 12.9 quater with just a lid??

Wow, I'd be content with 340 at the wheels with my full bolt-ons car.

...let's see what it runs!

Thats insane power for a lid/tune only A4. If you don't mind me asking, what kind of adjustments were made in the tuning session?

In for track times

Don't be disappointed when that car traps 107.

My friend had a 99 Z28 stock with 2.73s, ran like 13.8@104 consistently. Put headers, dumped y, and lid on it and it ran 13.6@106?.

He probably picked up a 100 horsepower and was smokin the tires for the first 200 feet.
