Well to be perfectly honest it makes me believe you're not making 360 rwhp. Case in point, my buddy's 02 WS6 trapped 108 with 325 rwhp. Full weight, full bolt ons, and automatic too. Was in similar conditions as well. This is why I never go by dyno numbers.

Before you call it a complete loss there's still quite a bit that hasn't been touched.
What kind of rear end gears are you running? Any suspension mods?
From my understanding, the exhaust upgrades you did helped top end power, but low end power suffers alittle bit, which is why the car still feels the same in normal daily driving, you wont feel it on the streets as you seldomly ever need more than 25% throttle to drive an LS1 around town. It balances out on the track though.

That makes sense about me not feeling like it pulls more. I didn't think about these mods being gear toward top end.
I appreciate your input.

The ET has a lot more to do with the launch, but from stock to full bolt ons with all else equal .5 seconds seems about right.
Yeah I'm not trying to discourage you or anything, but more just trying to steer you down the right path, because that's what we are here for. I honestly wouldn't sweat it. Your car runs just fine for what it is, so I'd just go and enjoy it.

If I remember right the DA was around 2000 that day, and temps in the high 60's.

My 2000 Z28 A4 with Hooker 1 3/4 LTs, Hooker O/R Y, E Cutout, Hooker Aerochamber, LS6 intake, Ported TB, Slp Lid and FTRA made 328hp Cutout Closed, 332hp Cutout open. I can't remember the torque numbers off hand and that was untuned so your numbers seem good.
The best time I ran bolt ons was 12.84@107.7 I believe. My 60ft was better than yours as well as DA though. Back then I had a race weight of 35XX lbs.
Edit: Found my times
My best run was:
DA: -294
60ft: 1.964
1/8th ET: 8.29
1/8th MPH: 87.07
1/4 ET: 12.849
1/4 MPH: 107.77
When I ran in July with similar DA to you I show that I ran a 13.03 @ 107

Agreed. Absolutely no negativity intended but 360whp on an auto with those mods seems like a friendly dyno, and the trap speed isn't backing up the number. What brand of dyno?
