Default LS1 limit

Anyone know the outer limits for the factory electronics? I have a customer and no matter what they do it will stop (like it hit a brick wall type of stop) at 1011 ft/lbs of torque t the rear wheels. The curve (if you can call it that) is almost vertical until it hits 1011 and then makes a 90 degree and stays at 1011. They tried some other cars on the dyno and it is fine. I know the turbos are maxxed out big time but this is ridiculous. Anyone know something they are missing here? I am damn curious as to what is going on in there. Oh yeah it is a lingenfelter program running right now in a stage 4 427LS1 Lingenfelter.

The stock computer will max out at 512 g/s of air flow. After that it has no idea what flow you have. From the numbers you posted, you maxed that out a long time ago. Your post is very vague so its hard to figure out what your asking.

I'd have to agree with the above statement.

Also, as was already mentioned, more details would help

Post a chart of the run first. I have a feeling if it's a low RPM run it could be maxxing out the dyno.
