Default Bolt-On Car Only

I've been looking around and can't find a dyno graph for a set-up similar to mine. I'll be getting my car dyno tuned at Texas-Speed probably next week and was wondering what it'll put down ballpark. It's a 2000 ws6, has an SLP Lid, ls6 intake manifold, long tube headers, TSP y-pipe, and TSP Rumbler Catback. The wheels are replica z06's that are 17x9.5 and the tires are factory 275/40/17's so no odd sizes there either. My guess was something like 320? Just don't want to get my hopes up too much lol. Thanks!

Sounds about the right ballpark to be playing in.

I have roughly the same mods and have alway assumed mine would dyno around 320-330 rwhp, so I'd say you are in the right ballpark.

Did you forget about the cam? Even with that cam you wasn't running 405 torque to the wheels!! What is your best E.T. and mph?

In my opinion alot of dyno shops messing up torque readings, i myself have probably got one accurate torque reading from a dyno and that is it. Ive put my car on the dyno, not just this one but other camaro's ive had about 6 times. Ive seen others who put there cars on the dyno not gettin accurate readings(torque at all).

Like others have said, that torque cannot be right. My buddies LS6 with a small cam put out just over 400tq at the wheels. Don't see an LS1 cam with 241 heads doing the same.

Thanks for the help everyone! It actually got pushed until probably next week since I had an exhaust come up for too good of a deal to pass up. I'll post some numbers up afterwards!

torque numbers will vary, i've seen bolt on + 150 shot nitrous cars push 600 rwtq

its a 98 ls1 cam, not a 01-02 cam. Duration is slightly longer with a smaller lift compared to the later year cams.

I'm going to the track on the 20th, so i'll let you all know what the trap speed is.

i didnt have 241 heads, i had 806 heads. If you go through my link i tried to list every variable as possible. Theres even a video.

I think I had a freak ls1 tbh, with proper maintainence and sea level altitude, 356 hp sounded about right. My other dyno runs were consistent in the 380-390 range.. 405 was my best. It was rather chilly that day too, like 55'ish.
