Default LS3 Bolt On Record with ROCKERS

Finally got the car (15 Camaro 1LE) in for a proper dyno tune. Mods are Z28 CAI, Rod Mod intake (done by Hiossilver) ARH 1 7/8 headers and 3" X pipe, Mezier EWP and short belt, 1.85 Rockers, PSI1511 springs and titanium retainers. Baseline was 445 RWHP 93 octane made 466RWHP and final E85 (60%) 476RWHP and 456 TRQ

That's seriously good for not opening up that motor. LS3 sometimes gets a bad rap. You must have done everything it needs and nothing it didn't.

That screen looks like a dyno dynamics screen. Is that what you used? Makes it even more impressive if you did.

That is correct. Those are the corrected numbers as well. The dyno was done in shootout mode. It's typically 3.5% less then the local dyno jet. Car is a totally different machine now! Can't wait to hopefully see some 120 MPH traps in the spring.

Dude 120 mph in a fifth gen is serious power! That's a lot of mass to get moving. But if you got that, it would certainly back up the dyno number

Nice numbers! How much do you think the Hio intake and EWP picked up for you? A buddy's 2015 1LE did 450/430 exactly on a very picky Mustang dyno with just TSP's LT's/X, CAI, and dyno tune. So anyone who doesn't believe this just isn't proper.

What Hio intake? Rod mod manifold? Or a custom CAI?

Great proper numbers. I bet you could push that up near 500 with some over night parts from Japan

Johnny it's a LS3 intake he ported and installed the rods inside to make it transition air smoother to the runner. If I was guessing the intake is worth 8-12 as is the EWP with short belt. But who knows....... as I completed all my bolt ons and then tuned one time.

Good stuff!

Would be cool to see the flow dynamics before and after the installation of the rods. This mod seems to be dedicated to the LS3 intake only?

So a car rated at 426 flywheel HP make 455rwhp stock? Or was that baseline after all the mods but before tuning?
