TSP 233/239 dyno results As promised here is the graph from this morning. The horsepower is right where I want but the torque sucks, especially down low. Could this be because it's running so lean? The tune is from PCMforless. Let me know what you guys think.

That tune is way too lean. Tell whats-his-name at PCM4less to fatten it up across the board. Torque loves fuel, so you will pick up some tq when he gets some more fuel in that thing.
Edit: What made you choose 918's for a cam with that kind of lift? I would have gone with something a bit stouter personally.

I know it needs fuel but do you really think I'll pick up 25 ft-lbs (which is where I would like to see it). I've heard of others using the 918's with over .600" of lift...even up to about .625" if I remember right plus I intend to check them after 10K miles and replace if needed.

that could possibly add 10-15rwhp

As soon as you take care of the lean condition and bring down to a safer (high 12.x) area, your TQ will come up, but your HP will also drop though. UD pulley was woth no HP for me, but it did drop my 60' time. PTB was worth about 5-7 HP as well.
decent numbers though!

I was standing next to you at the dyno. Your car was waaaaayyyy lean. Thats why I asked you if it was tuned. There was a little bit of audible knock also. Nothing a good tune can't cure. Keep out of the throttle though. 
The dyno screen display was showing a lean condition form 2500 up

Why didn't you just have Jason at TSP send you a mail-order tune for the car? I would imagine their pricing is really comprable to pcmforless(that stuff is for the Lt1's), and I would almost guarentee he could get closer on the A/F tune than that. Man, that's probably worse than stock tune!!
