Finally went to the Dyno, heres my official stats
These are untuned numbers, money is a little low right now so couldnt afford a tune, just wanted to see my base numbers, check out my signature for my mods.

thanks, I was surprised being its untuned with just a few goodies. With an underdrive and a dyno tune I would assume I can hit 375 rwhp. Not bad at all for a bolt on car.
My first run was really lean, it actually stumbled when the tech floored it. As soon as I get a few more Benjamins in my pocket I will get a tune. Might do a Frost tune, not sure yet. But all in all very impressed with the numbers being on stock heads and stock cam untuned.

And yes the car is running lean, maybe thats from the Mass Air with no screen? bought the car like that with no screen, so I wasnt able to notice the difference before and after.

I have to agree with above a bolt on LS1 will not hit 370+rwhp. Usually its a 340-360 tops rwhp. Yes some dyno lower then that also depends if you have a A4 or M6. If i pulled off a 360+ on the dyno i would without a doubt question the shop and tell him to double check everything and do another run and without a doubt make sure they are corrected numbers. I would hate to have a camaro pull off 375rwhp and run 108-110mph, lol.

I'm fairly sure the 380hp referenced in the sticky is talking about crank HP which is totally believable and some might even do better.
There are a lot of ls1 cars with bolt ons and a cam which will make around 370-390rwhp on a normal dyno. If you bought the car used it is always possible a tiny ls6 cam or something similar was swapped in by the previous owner (but your graph does not look like a cam car).
More likely, the particular dyno just has a slightly inflated calibration. Hence why they are tools, not gospel. Either way your car runs good for the mods and you should be proud. Not trying to bust *****, just want to inform.

Oh also the sticky said plainly (how much am i making at the rear wheels?) and gives all estimated rwhp gains per mod, also stating that most cars are as you said, 360 tops bolt ons, BUT have seen some at 380 (this is with electric water pumps and underdrive pulley) both in which my car does not have... All in all, Im still surprising the new 5.0 mustangs with the brembo packages (not just brakes, but they have the 3.73s stock) so im happy once again

Thanks, i noticed a nice difference with the intake, I also got those small little mods, tb bypass, stuff like that. I couldnt believe the difference in just the restriction within the ls6 vs ls1. The LS1 runner design sucks in comparison. But I thought it was high, it surprised me, but dyno's dont lie, esp a nice dynojet setup they had.

I beg to differ greatly in opinion on that statement. My car with an old setup made 365rwhp one day and several months later on the same dyno with better exhaust and an underdrive pulley made 349rwhp.
But went to the track and it was .15 and 2mph faster in worse air and was noticeably stronger on the street.
Dynos are tools which are calibrated and require input from weather stations and operators. You can make one read just about whatever you want if you try. Slightly high reading dynos lead to happy customers. Happy customers are good for business.
If you mean same day testing of different parts then I would be more inclined to agree.
