Default Stock + Airlid dyno

Well I just got my car dynoed (stock + new lid), here's the results:



I wanted to get in a few pulls before I install my new QTP headers/y-pipe and GMMG. I was actually surprised how loud the car was, it didn't seem that loud from the inside. I can't wait to get the GMMG installed.

The guys noticed that my A/F ratio is a bit rich but I think I can correct that with a tune after I install the new parts. According to the print out it was 106.49F on the second run.. I need to go back when it's cooler.

I'm a little concerned now because I notice every time I accelerate from a stop there's weird sounds coming from the front of the car, like something is rubbing against something else. At first I thought it might be the shocks/springs acting up but everytime I go over bumps I don't hear the noise.

Any ideas or am I just being paranoid about a trivial thing?

Headers and exhaust is it for now. The plan is that once I finish school I'll replace the cam/heads etc.

Of course after I install the headers I'll probably change my mind

Yep...your A/F is too rich. There's more power left in it. You're right though. There's no point tuning it until you get the headers bolted up. It's real safe at 12.0 or so.

Numbers are right on par.

As for the noise, could be anything...

When I got up this morning and took the car for a drive the sound was gone. :shrug:

I went to the track for the first time today which was a lot of fun. My goal was mid 14's and I managed a best of 14.61@97.54

I was shocked when I saw your times until I saw that you live in Colorado. Elevation is murder on cars.
