I though this combo should make more power? I have a 98 Camaro z28 car that I had a 6.2 built for. The motor has forged Molnar rods custom auto tech pistons 11.8 compression, Trick flow Gen X 255 heads, Cam motion Cam XA230/365-XA238/355- 113+3 TSP 1/7/8 inches headers into a 3 inch Y pipe single out to CME. Nick Williams 102 TB, ported LS3 Intake. I had it tuned yesterday in AZ and the car made 468 WHP, and 436 Ft pounds. I was hoping the car would make 500+. Is there something that can be done to get some more out of it. I will be adding Flex fuel to it, and I'm thinking about adding dual cutouts, Is their something that this combos is missing thats preventing it from making more power? And my next issue is since the swap I can not get the gauge cluster to work. I thought it was something in the tune, but they assured me its not. The tuner believes its in the wiring, but nothing from the the dash was touched the harness is out of a 2002 Camaro that I took the T56 Transmission from. Any help with either of these issues would be greatly appreciated. |
Forget the dyno number for the moment. If I had a dime for every time I've seen this I'd be rich lol. Run it at the track and see what traps. Trap speed doesn't lie |
Uncorking that y pipe outlet will help a lot. More than likely that outlet drops to 2.5 in. inside diameter. Put a flowmaster merger in there with a 4in. outlet |

Ditch the y, ditch the stock ls3 intake. put it on e85. |
Why would you do all this and ignore the exhaust? |
Who tuned it? |
