Default Dyno tuning results and major props in here...

Before this gets started, I'd like to give Ron (Cammin Beasst) and Allan Futral MAJOR props for helping to get my car straight. You guys kick ***, and anyone that says any different is a moron.
OK, first baseline run with new Ford 9, 393rwhp. That was down from 425rwhp from before the rear swap (ouch). Also, swapped in a stock MAF with the screen still in, and power went down again to 373rwhp (double ouch). Allan discovered that the TB wasn't opening but about 70%. He fixed that, then it pulled 395 or so. With a little adjustment, it was back up to 410. Little more adjusting, and 434.7 RWHP!!!!!!!!!!! I about freaked. The best thing is, it only took him 3 pulls to get me up to that. Talk about a tuning genious <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Car pulls like a MOTHER F***ER!!! And drives like stock. No more surging idle, and the nasty hot start problem is gone.
PROP SECTION: On a side note, Allan tuned another car that had previously made 469rwhp with another shops full tune, and after he had finished, it made 509 at the wheels. HOLY ****!!!! Folks, this man knows his ****. PERIOD! And big thanks to Ron, for hooking me up big time!!!!
Anyway, the car's running awesome. 40+rwhp just with tuning, blows my mind. Thanks guys <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Damn man, let some people catch up to you before you start changing $hit out <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" />
Nice numbers though, especially through a 9''. Time to get my cam installed and get some of the custom BM LLC tuning done <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

I gotta admit when I saw that 372 pull I was a lil worried. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> 434rwhp sure is BADASS. Thanx for letting me make a rip down JVL, that thing pulls like a BEAST. Needless to say, Im definately impressed with Allan Futrals capabilites. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> Get to the track and get some times now. Dyno #s dont mean squat.

425 rwhp on the stock rear and 434 on the 9"? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="gr_eek2.gif" /> Great gains. Curious what gears were in the 10 bolt. I want to keep the stock gearing in my Corvette and wanted to know how the cam would like that.

The 425 was untuned on the stock rear with 3.42s. Power went down to 393 untuned with the Ford 9. So realistically, I would have around 450 or so if I still had the stock rear in.

Awesome #s! What do you think the car will run at the track? I would be nice to see how the TEA heads work with that new LG G5 2x cam.

Allan tuned my car and I can tell you that I am running the way I do because of his tuneing skill <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> . 2 pulls and he said Ok your done. I Could tell right away that it felt better and was very immpressed with the dyno. She only put out 389 hp and 382 tq , but it was a very nice tq and hp crve with no dips from a bad tune.
