Every dyno is different. Sorry to hear those #'s. You might have something wrong with your car. Maybe scan it.

The car runs really strong. I've run 2 other cars w/ similar mods and put a little over a car length on both of them. So i know its not the car, wondering if a tune and letting it cool down next time is going to really pick it up.

do you have the graph with the airfuel reading ? Did you just want to know your power or was this car tuned ? Seems kinda pathetic to tell you the truth with the ls6 intake factory on your car .

Agreed, numbers seem way low. I have basically the same mods you do with a ported T/B and made numbers in sig through a 9" rear and steal driveshaft (known to suck up some HP). In fact, I made over 300 bone stock, and almost 320 with just a lid, filter, MAF, and some free mods, and mine is an early 2000 with the older supposedly less capable heads. I would either look seriously at your tune or something. As far as using the Vettes numbers to compare with, don't. It is a known fact that GM under rated the HP in the F-body. A 305 HP f-body will almost always dyno the same if not better than a 350 HP rated vette. The Vette also has slightly higher parasitic losses than a F-body so in theory the same motor in a Vette would dyno slightly less.

If its untuned that is your biggest problem! Mine was only putting down like 320 h.p. And 340ish tq before my tune i picked 15 h.p.+ and 30 t.q. . Check around your area for someone cheaper to tune it. I got a full tune for $200 Your car will feel a lot better.
