Good numbers man. I'm assuming your cutout was open for the test? Please answer this question and get up those pictures of your exhaust manifolds so we can tell if you have headers/y-pipe. You may also have a tune.

LS1tech has a video hosting service btw.

and another thing to consider is since his car has had N20 on it theirs a chance that some of the free mods are done, such as gutted cats, P&P TB, every little bit helps

Yeah, good points. We need to see some picture of the exhaust system from the manifolds back, under the car, etc.

no guys, we wanted the graph and he showed it to us. Honestly maybe the car has something else done to it that you don't know about...? Or that dyno tends to give higher numbers... I dynoed 338/351 on a heartbreaker with full bolt-ons.

yea but thats what im sayin if the car has N20 who knows what else is done, probally a tune, it could have a mild cam like a cheatR cam or a LS6 cam and their would be no way of telling now, or might have LS6 heads. theirs no telling whats done to it without talkin to the original owner.

I agree, i don't think if this guy knows nothing about the past of the car how his claims can be looked at seriously. Only whoever did the work on the car previously knows whats in it and people looking for answers on mods are probably not going to the whole truth because the owner isnt even sure

Those are decent numbers! Like I said a few days ago, I think he may have a tune because the previous owner was running nitrous. I bet the guy took off most of the mods he had including the bottle, and would have had no reason to flash the tune back to stock, so sold it with that tune and a cut out. A tune and cutout would get close to 330whp.

Wow....I can't believe I looked at 17 pages and then actually saw numbers. I thought we were all being strung along and just "hooked"!

I will now believe anything and must send money to those nice people in Nigeria who have been writing me.

lol guys so now you want me to take it to the track......i will try to find the time aand money to go to the track but i need to get some tires first. O and i will call the owner and ask him if he did anything to it..tune, bolt ons, etc. Also i will get the pics of under the car tomorrow. Also could you figure the total crank horsepower from these numbers or not, cuz they never gave me those numbers...(noob question but o well) O and the cut outs were open
thanks
david

guys i dont know why it doesnt i realized that when it was first pointed out but i can tell you nothing was tampered with, the guys dynoed it than printed it out and i took a picture of it and posted it on here....O and sick son, where do you live, because if your dynoing 379 and making a 13.06 1/4 than it could be the elevation your at. i will post the vid up shortly

Dude another thing to remember is this is the internet, the only person you have anything to prove something to is yourself. You already admitted you got a new car, was excited about the power and thought it was more HP then you thought but just think before you type stuff like that next time, and get outa the noob section on here and go to the bolt-on or some other section that will expand your knowledge on these amazing cars
