Okay, this is a bit wierd but I need some honest opinions. It seems that several individuals on this site think that my dyno numbers are not very impressive so I want to poll everyone. My mods are below. When I first installed everything I put down 396 rwhp and 378rwtq through a 10 bolt w/ 3.42 and full exhaust. My A/F was high and it ranged from 13.8 to 13.4. I had someone help me tune it using the 02 sensor to keep it safe. After, I had a 12 bolt w/ 4.11 installed we went down to Midnight Performance and tuned it on a dyno. My first pull showed that I was making 396 rwhp and 363 rwtq. The 12 bolt robbed some power. The A/F was around 13.3 so we tuned it and got it down to 12.8. The final safe numbers are seen below.
I figured with a 10 bolt and tuning I would have gained 13 rwtq that I gained from the final tune which would have put me at 391 rwtq (378+13). The Hp is a mystery but I assume I lost 10 rwhp to be conservative. (396+10) would have been 406 rwhp at 6200rpms. I did the conversion so that we could compare apples with apples. 10bolt Numbers would have been 406 RWHP and 391RWTQ which I think is kick *** for a 220/220 cam. What do you guys think? Is anyone making more power with this small of a cam with similar mods?
I dyno through full exhaust, with 17 in SS wheels, regular belt, and an istalled TSP lid. In other words, NO DYNO TRICKS
Thanks for your time!

This cam uses a different intake lobe than the TR and its on a different lsa, centerline which ultimately means different valve events. I will email you my first dyno its the only one scanned into my cpu. My wife was organizing things for the new baby and found a new home for most of my stuff which means she has no f-ing clue where she put it.

I really can't because I promise Shawn I wouldn't. He goes by 93PONY but hasn't been around lately. He designed and installed the cam for me. Look him up and email him. He's a nice guy and he will help you out. Later!
