Yeah your LS1 intake manifold is holding you back. With a LS6 you'd net around another 10rwhp, and a FAST92/92 another 10rwhp on top of that.

No, 370 doesn't sound out of place, anyway the Dyno's just a tool to get the tune dialed-in for max performance, so I wouldn't dwell on the numbers.

Oh ok well that makes me feel better about the numbers then. Yeah I pondered on getting a degree wheel and I really wish I would have now...Kelly from PCMofNC also said that the tuner said that my crush bent true dual exhaust was probably holding me back some as well. I need to pick me up a ls6 intake when money allows it. What's you guys thoughts on the ls2 intake any gains to be had there, or will that intake even work with a third gen LS? Do you think I will notice any power difference after going from the mail order tune to the dyno tune?

Okay that only makes sense that it would. How much you think I would gain with it all mandel bent, like a tsp rumbler or something of the sort? But I got the car back from PCM of NC yesterday and is running great! I can tell it's definitely more peppy also seems to drive better. Put down 370 RWHP, and about 361 RWTQ. They are some great people to deal with would definitely recommend them! Here's a dyno video to anyone who's interested.
