I get tuned and dynoed tomorrow. See sig. Wish me luck everyone, I'm driving 4 hours to Tampa to get it done. I will post up after it's completed. I hear that Florida is a "low dyno" state, but I hope that's BS.

If I don't get 400+RWHP, I will be PISSED!

Thanks

I'm not sure what to do yet, so I'm throwing out all kinds of ideas and trying to put it together into a nice package by the time I'm ready to spend the $$$

corvette owners do it with a Stock LS6 cam and ported LS6 heads, to be honest with you they make more around 420 or so. And thats through an IRS.

if your a stick Eastside performance can get you there with a cam and bolt-ons but if your an auto like myself you will need the heads. I made 420 hp/420tq through a TH400 and a 12 bolt...

Hey, what up neighbor?! Are the numbers crappy even when it cools off? I never dynoed in FL before. We're at sea level, so you'd think we'd hit our marks.

To get above 400 RWHP, I guess it would have to get down to the 50's.

Fat chance that happens down here....

Cool weather is greatly appreciated. Mid-August runs at the track are ugly.
Nice setup by the way.
Also, did you know that we have a dyno tuner here in South Florida?

Hey yeah I did, but my wife wanted to see family in Tampa so I killed two birds with one stone! And this guy was good, Jeremy Formato went above and beyond the call to help me out. He came out to my sister in laws house at 1:30am to check the SES light after I triggered it myself. On the way back from the dyno, this turbo Accord was pestering me and I tried to ignore him and his ghey passengers. So I gave him a taste (you know what happened) but slammed on my brakes because I closed in on traffic all-too-fast. The result was that I cracked the front lip of my battery bracket so the battery went flyin' around and it disconnected long enough to set a code.

Anyhow, I am stoked over these numbers. The car is beastly up top. The shop was warm (81 degrees, 67% humidity) and the dyno numbers are UNcorrected:



423HP/392TQ are numbers I can live with in the "Low Dyno State!"

I dont see a ported throttle body in your sig. If you dont have one ,get one you will gain 8-10 more rwhp

The 400 rwhp mark is pretty subjective when it comes to head and cam packages. I have seen a few 216/220 cams with stage I heads with full boltons make the 400 rwhp mark with the stock 10 bolt and a T56. I know that is not the norm but it does happen on occasion just depending on many other variables. I recommend maybe not looking at the total hp output but what can you live with in terms of driveability and maintence and make a decision from there. Just some food for thought.
