Default Paging Nineball

What are the C5 Corvette MTI Superstrokers dynoing through cats and full exhaust? Both Ls1 and LS6 headed.
Thanks again,
Chris

With the standard R1 camshaft (232/237) they are pulling around 480 rwhp thru stock cats and a catback.

Nobody really puts the cats on their car when they opt for the more rowdy S1 (244/244) camshaft, so I don't have any numbers to report there.

Most R1/LS6 422ci setups pull somewhere around 500 rwhp with no cats. LS1 heads are about 10-12 rwhp less. S1 cammed 422ci setups pull in the 510-520 rwhp range with no cats.

Then there are guys like PaiN and Colonel that pull around 530 rwhp with open headers.

I'll dyno mine with open headers soon, before we build the new 3" Y-pipe setup.

That is interesting information. So with Ls6 heads and cats around 480RWHP? Offroads with LS6 heads ~500 through full exhaust?
Thanks again,
Chris

Chris,

from Corvetteforum.com
</font></li>[*]<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Tom (nevrenuf) M6 C5 Coupe, MTI 422
LS6 heads
R1 (232/237 .560/.560 114) - 488rwHP/480rwTQ
242/242 .610/.610 113LS - 495rwHP/470rwTQ
pretty sure – off road setup
Not sure if it’s through cutout of full exhaust
Not sure on octane….
<no graph>
</font></li>[*]<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> NoMercy Z06, MTI 422
LS6 heads (duh <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> )
S1 (244/244 .612/.612 112LS) –
Off road setup
Through cutouts
NoMercy mentioned that the setup/tune requires race fuel to avoid pinging
509rwhp/488rwtq

</font></li>[*]<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> jmC5 Z06, MTI 422 (a while back - Feb 2001)
LS6 heads (duh <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" /> )
R1 Cam
I think off road setup
Cutouts (removed mufflers)
Was tuned on pump gas buy jmC5 posted since that that car pings on pump gas, so he’s running 100octane
503rwHP/506rwTQ

</font></li>[*]<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> sorry I forgot the handle, but it was something like Mag Red 99 or something like that

Random Tech Hi-Flow cats
