Low dyno #s Took my 02 camaro to Thunder Racing the other day for a tune. Mods are LT headers, ORY, Magnaflow exhaust, lid, TR Trak cam, Yank ss4000 stall, and 3.73. Car is always driven on Bfg drag radials. I was very happy with the tune from Thunder but disappointed with the dyno numbers.It only made 348whp unlocked and 366 locked. I did so reading here and found most say with a big stall auto dont expect much on the dyno so I decided to call a few friends. First was a 03 cobra with a pulley and tune with boltons. From a dig it was no contest although he was on drag radials as well and had a solid axle swap I put about 4 cars on him and stayed pulling. So we decided to go from a 50 roll, this is were I thought I was is big trouble, to my surprise the cars were dead even with little edge in my favor... maybe half a car. Next up was a 6-speed ss with similar mods to my car and on drag radials.... this car was tuned at Thunder 2 weeks ago and made 390 whp. We made two pulls both from a dig with me pulling by 2 cars each time, he left just as hard as I did but around 45-50 I started to walk away . So for anyone who dynos their big stall automatic, dont let the numbers get you down just go run the car and be plesantly surprised.
