Default Dynoed the c5 for the first time today.

Baseline run with only the intake/smooth bellows: 298rwhp

Installed an ASP crank pulley, borla stingers, WCC xpipe and new plugs: 312rwhp/320rwtq

So, I picked up 14rwhp with the exhaust and pulley, but that was with NO tuning (just dyno pulls) and the computer is pulling timing like a **** up top. It climbs to 311 real early then just plummets when the computer pulls back. I'm gonna pick up a Shaner s2 and an ls6 intake and then head back for some tuning. I'm sure I'll reach 325rwhp.

How do you know the PCM is pulling timing out??? Did you at least get your AFRs

Dunno why it would be pulling timing. My C5 with just an intake and a flat *** HP curve and had no timing issues whatsoever.

I bet you could add some timing. Only reason why it would be pulling it is if the gas was bad or low octane I think. Never had this problem in the Z06 but in the Trans Am I did once.
