Default Well I finally go to the dyno with my new setup

Well I have a 4:30 appointment at the dyno tomorrow. I will post up number after its done I am hoping for good curve rather than a high number. I need the tune bad. I took my wife out eat last night and she wanted to run the AC. I worked fine except when I was stopped. The car sounded like it wanted to stall out. I know these heads flow there *** off .
Anyone want to take a guess at how much power I have at the wheel.
We can see how close you are tomorrow night. I do not what type of dyno they are using. My info is in my sig.

My neighbors wife 03 cobra is going as well a 04 twinturbo cobra. It will be should be fun to see what they put down.

They are GM 243. CNC Ported with valve job for ferra valves. Not sure on the stage. I bought them used then had matched with the valves at local shop that had a waiting list based on reputation. I have not had my car on the road for 3 months.

Well guys its a dyno jet. ONLY problem is the only tuner they had for a GM locked up . I drove long ways to get there too. Funny thing was there were these two kids there getting there wrx tuned (the dyno works for awd too). He was estatic because he put down 294 HP. I guess that would be pretty quick in a light weight AWD car. They asked about mine and they did not seem to care for V8 RWD cars.
I have another appointment this Thursday with a working tunner. This will be on a dyno jet as well. Just have to wait.
Time should go by fast since I leave on vacation Saturday. Kind of sucked to get there and not be able tune and dyno the car.

Yeah I know those car can be made fast but your buddys is 405 and this guy was almost at 300hp big difference.

Thanks, I will let you know what I hit even though I know the track is where it counts .

I hope over 450 as we have a very similar build and I will beat my face in if I dont break 450whp

Car looks great too BTW, TA's will always have a spot in my heart that I wont ever fill.

sorry to post my opinion Liberty but I don't think you'll hit 450 with ported LS6's/LS6 intake/ms4. Maybe like 430. but the setup sounds nice and I actually do hope you prove me wrong! would really impress me!

I would think its doable depending on how good the heads flow

Well I cant say that I am mad but I won't say I am happy till I can see the curve. The car dynoed 389 RWHP. I was hoping for alot more. I could not be there because I have to watch the little one today. I am going to double check and make sure all of the injectors and Intake is installed correctly when I get the car back. I was thinking the TR224 would hit around that number on its own. They told that dyno was about 13 to 15 hp off from another dyno jet in the area. The one they used also works on AWD cars as well. I will post the sheet when it is in my hands. Any ideas or I am just not being realistic.
