Is there a low number threshold that would mark my car as a dog? Or a high mark that would make it a freak?

I'm kinda worried about how it turns out...

342hp and 346tq if its a dynojet. Confused on your mods. Its says you have egr block off but you have a 02. The 02 came with the LS6 manifold so there is no EGR..

Low marks with your mods would be in the low 320 range. High marks would be the 350's.

There are some pieces that came off the tops of the headers that were replaced with block off plates. I thought that was the egr...

Honestly, some dynos will make you think that you have a freak or a dog.. some just read lower and some will read higher. I wouldnt get too caught up on the numbers. Although i know how you feel. we all want to see good numbers when we put our car on the dyno.. keep us updated

Just got it back. The car made 303/330 before the tune and 329/351 after the tune.

I can't believe the car was only making 303 with all those bolt ons before the tune. From the posts I've read on here, I thought LS1's made 300 stock...

Not bad... just remember a dyno number is just that a number and only a tuning tool. The real question is how she runs now picking up the power from the tune??

We've had nothing but downpour since I got the car back. It feels better from the little I've tapped, but I haven't been past 1/2 throttle yet...
