Finally Got Her on the Dyno.

Well I finally got a chance to put the Formula on the Dyno. Pretty impressed with the results. 365 rwhp & 373 rwtq. Did this on a dynojet. Gonna refine the tune just a hair next weekend but over all pretty good.
Was really impressed with how smooth the curve was and the torque came on really strong.

My mods are in my signature

Nice results considering your choice of mods. I bet she drives like stock until you hit the gas. Good stuff bro.

Yeah the drivability isn't too bad at all. You have to let her warm up first but after that its not too bad. Driving on wet roads sucks but that's a givin.

That peak HP number looks very low to me, but maybe you'll see an improvement with the tuning. Looks to be running a bit lean.

They're about right actually. I'm still running the LS1 intake and the heads are stock besides the fact that there lightly milled. I also am still running the stock lid. Those 3 right there are really hurting me on power output.

Yeah me and the guy that tuned it are planning on taking a look at it this weekend and bringing the A/F back into check.

that intake must REALLY choke it or something, cuz I made more power (barely) and WAAY more torque (huge flat curve too) and I'm running a smaller cam, shortys and both stock cats...

I'm really interested to see what your numbers are with a lid and better intake manifold
