Dyno numbers are in!
Hey guys I had the truck tuned Friday and wanted your thoughts on my dyno chart. Power seems to fall of rather soon and seems a little low to me. Motor is a 2001 ls1, forged bottom end, 70mm w/ .96 ar turbo, speed inc tu1 cam, approx 9#'s of boost and an alky kit. 4l60e, Ford 9" rear end with 3.89 gears and a Detroit trutrac. AFR is good and I believe he said the timing is around 16* at the top.

eh maybe it's not too much. just looked at one of my logs from last year and i was at 14* at 12 psi spraying 70/30
but there was a point that i had it up to 16* and it didnt go faster. didn't log any knock, just didnt make any more power.
every set up is different though.
do a pull and yank the plugs. plugs dont lie

The power is falling off early due to the small turbo/exhaust wheel. Same thing happened to me with a MP70 turbo with 346 cubic inches. Was the converter locked? Regardless, me thinks the trans/converter and that rearend are eating up power. Not a real well optimized setup for big power, but I think its right on considering these factors and only 9psi. That similar combo I'm speaking to made 616 to the tire thru a 6 speed and 12 bolt @ 15psi - but went flat at 5300 and was down like a rock by 5800 due to exhaust housing restriction.

Not sure who's 70mm you are running but you shouldn't be out of exhaust wheel yet. Does the boost drop off at upper rpm's? On our dyno we see boost/power fall off as a turbo starts to choke out. We typically see 600rwhp on 70mm's through auto's here before they are done. More cubes will choke them out faster. While not ideal I think your numbers are a bit lower than typically due to your drive line. Our last L33 did just over 500/600 at 9ish pounds through a th400 with similar timing to yours. Every dyno will spit out different numbers though. Spraying meth at 9lbs probably isn't helping either.
Is it a load bearing dyno? Before we added a brake to ours we would loose 2-3lbs on a pull as we were just spinning a 2,000lb roller. Do you have a log of the dyno pull?
