I think the 2-1/2" exhaust and the 9 inch are hurting his HP a bit. He needs the 9 inch, but maybe we can talk him into a better exhaust.

Wow those are monster #'s

 

OH MY GOD! That's totally INSANE!

Pete still has these rusty old headers that are dented and shortened with no real collector on them, 2.5" exhaust with full mufflers and a bone stock MAF...just speculative of course but could those few changes (and/or a new FAST intake) possibly yield him the ever elusive 500rwhp from an NA 346?
Awesome results guys.

 

holy god....500 is gonna happen like next week

 

WOW, that is amazing........

That HP curve looks like one of Cedar Points roller coaster hills, it just keeps climbing and fast.

It's still amazing on how you guys keep getting more and more out of a 346.

When I get my 409 stroker done next year, maybe 550-575 HP won't be hard to reach if I get the right parts...

 

Good God Man that boy is gonna fly Oh wait thats me !!! Man these guys are good.. CARTEK!!!!

 

cartek just keeps pushing the boundaries and setting the standards. awesome work and the LS1 community thanks you any video clips of pete's car?

 

wow!

i want one! wonder what it would do on a 200 direct port shot! oh wait, im broke!

 

Congrat's on your car,Pete

 

just curious what does a setup like that cost? Also what compressoin are you guys running. That in my A4 w/o spray would be nice and might win me some $$

 

simply squirt-o-rific!!! Seeing numbers like that makes me want to spend money.

 

Umm..... WOW. Are the cam specs a secret? I'm just wondering if its a monster like the LG cams or more tame like that 2-X cam.

 

Wow. Congrats Pete and Cartek. Let me just say before the haters pile on, that I have seen Pete's car run with his old setup, and his track numbers back up the dyno. Awsome guys.


Bruce

 

WOW! CARTEK

that is just crazy!! that car is gonna fly even more!

Good luck on Friday Pete

 

Torque Curve looks much less "peaky" than the last graph you posted?

Is this because of a better tune or a different cam?

Great results~!

 

How much do you think the TPIS intake and throttle body gave it???

 

Congrats!

Throw a stock rear on there just for testing

 

Damn!!!!!!!!!!! If Pete has the ***** to drive the living **** outta the car and the track condition/weather are good, I predict a 10.4x @ 132.mph.

Way to go Cartek, as usual on the cutting edge of LS1 technology. I'm proud to be one of your customers!

 

Unbelieveable!!! Now trash that 2.5" exhaust and slap a good "X" pipe and 3" exhaust on there and I think 500 RWHP is right around the corner!

 

Yep. Thinking the same thing....... if those #'s are truely accurate then with a 10 bolt that car is OVER 500RWHP with the stock bottom. That is kick ***.

I think they should do it just to get the number. Although area under the curve is better, the stroker boys have some work to do! Wow.
