Default Thoughts on dyno results?

Motor is out of a 2000 camaro

-ms3 cam 113lsa
-243 heads self ported


-Fast102/92 with 85mm truck maf
1 7/8 headers to dual 3 inch exhaust w x pipe
-46 lb injectors 255walbro pump
-ls2 timing chain
-high volume oil pump
-upgraded trunion bearings
-no a/c

Car is strictly a track car. Ended up at 398/341 looks like there was a little bit left but was peaking out when tuner stopped at 6600 rpm

Does torque or hp seem low given the mods? Was told between 400-450

What car is this in now? Says it was from a Camaro, is it still in there?

Auto or manual? What converter and locked or unlocked in auto, what clutch is manual?

Lots of missing information here. But my first inclination is to say it might be a tad low. It does also look like HP was still climbing. This probably needs to be tuned to run out to 7,000rpm for a MS3 cam in a track car.

I'm also not familiar with Powerdyne dynos, do you know if it's load bearing or not? Might just be stingy.

From what I understand it is mustang dyno software, http://mustangdyne.com/powerdyne/

It has monster stage 3 clutch t-56, swapped into a Nissan 240sx which has stock 4.08 rear end welded diff.

If that is a mustang dyno you will definitely have lower numbers than what the ball park guesses are.

Will you be re-dynoing with the tune pushed past 6600?

Low overall #'s for that combo. Your power curve looks real strong though. I'd want to spin that thing to, at least, 7k. Looks real good.

On a normal dynojet i'd bet your around 450.

Switch to a larger MAF or a card style MAF. I'm never the guy to promote SD tuning, I like the real time adjustment a MAF brings to the table, but I would imagine a larger MAF would clear up an obvious choke point in your intake.

Other than that, I would just push it to 7k and see where that gets you.

They are fueled racing long tube headers for engine swap. Guess they are only 1 3/4, I thought they were 1 7/8 for some reason after I smoothed out some of the weld beads on the inside and measured with calipers

I'll look into getting a card maf so I can use larger intake piping.
