Default Dyno sheet inside, feedback please

Dynoed my 01 SS with lid, ftra, cutout, ls6 cam/springs, 3500 stall torque converter, and a predator tune. I was hoping or a little more but is the torque converter holding the hp back, or is this about right?

Oh, and I got to see a very interesting 175 dry nitrous explosion. DAYAM!

I think the tq converter,the fact that you are an A4, and you don't have headers are holding you back.

Looks about right for an auto with a converter. Headers would definetley help.

Woah, I log on an hour or so later and voila it's a new board. And ya it was 330, and I can def. tell it needs to breath better. NOt only LT's but true duals with x pipe is going on. Then I might go back and dyno again after a custom tune on the Predator.

What are you trying to say? You think mine should be more? Your numbers are right on for an M6 with those mods. My old 00 SS dynoed at 334rwhp with lid, cutout and fra.

Dyno #'s mean very little. Your #'s are fine for your mods-If you had an m6 you would get around 344 or so. With your converter and shift ext. around 5k you are in your power zone all the time. Max #'s mean NOTHING. Its the power around them that count.At 5k you picked up around 8hp by 5.5 17hp by 6 around 25. I bet at 6.5k you picked up 40+hp. The stock cam falls from 5.6k up and its dying at 6k your going into your peak then. What are you shifting at anyway?

Shifting at 6200, rev limit set at 6500. I think if I raise my shifts any higher I'll bounce my limiter, but I might try to go higher after the LT's and duals.

Headers will make it feel like a different car especially with that high RPM cam

Don't listen to him, I agree that your numbers seem about right with an auto and converter. Also, whats up with the spikes around 4,000 rpm's?

I'm assuming the spikes have something to do with the torque converter, but I really don't know.
