Ron, we have a new connector hose on the way. You inadvertently got a 4"X4" hose which is way too big for the TB causing an airgap once the connector hose clamp is tightened.
This is probably why Ron mentioned codes after installation. I'm sure you guys caught this issue, but we are sending the correct 3.75"X4" hose tomorrow.
Thanks,
Jim

Tuning is not required with our StingerCKN to make power. Ron told me they got those numbers just bolting it on without touching the code. They state above that it was just bolted on after 30 minutes and bam! Our intake makes most of its power from close to stock tuning parameters, with respect to MAF translation.
Ron can elaborate here. I just got a late night report the other day.
Production is on hold right now. We are out of pre-preg carbon fiber and will not have any for several weeks.

We did install it on three stock motors. +9 RWHP on two stock C7s and +12/8 on the engine dyno was the result. Posted in other threads. 14 RWHP/9lbs-ft with MAF correction.
So the intake bolt on score card:
Stock Manual Katech C7: +9/6 with no tuning
Stock Manual Katech C7 +14/9 with MAF correction only, no power tuning
Stock Halltech C7 auto: +9/6 with no tuning
Stock Halltech C7 auto: +14/9 with MAF correction only, no power tuning
Katech Stage 1 includes our intake and power tuning. Jason has those numbers.
Vengeance Racing cam,headers/power tuning done prior to install. Bolt on Stinger: +19/21 with no further tuning or tweaking.

Another tuner on a different dyno with the same mods hit 525/456 so there's a pretty big variance mod for mod, different car/dyno/day. I think this illustrates an excellent point. 532 on your dyno could be quite different on another.....etc.
Do you want someone to try to get their dyno to show 533?
BTW, kudos on you achievements. Very nice.

That being said, mod for mod we seem very close.. Obviously different dyno/different day, but cam/headers/cold air and custom calibration were all done on both vehicles. Its nice to see another shop make awesome power with these simple mods

My post meant to antagonize Chuck a bit... I realize he just made 525RWHP cam only.

Either way, 520-530 cam only? Who'd have thought these things would be so beastly? I'm impressed as hell to be quite honest. I feel like I could be around 560-580 with the heads and ported intake. But unfortunately I'm still waiting patiently for those heads to be done
Probably going to take it to the track tomorrow to see how terrible I can be at launching the car. I haven't fully tested launch control yet with all the mods. I'm hoping it still works. lol
Test fit my 18's today. Had to overnight a different offset to clear the front brakes. Will have a her rolling on bigs and smalls tomorrow morning.

Oh and BTW. We obviously both pretty much have the cam "nailed" on these things. But I know plenty of shops will struggle with designing successful cams. So 520-530 probably won't be the norm. It's like a shop today that uses me for tuning, brought an LS3 Camaro they designed their own cam for. They told me the specs and i was like 
the car made 450 through a M6! The shop owner was like, "he'll be happy." referring to the customer. I was like, he will? Lol that's the lowest LS3 cam car I've ever seen lol

We received our Halltech CKN system yesterday. After opening the box and inspecting the unit we went straight to the dyno.
As with all Halltech systems the CKN for the C7 is extremely high quality and looks amazing. I am not a huge "bling" guy, but the carbon fiber under the hood is awesome. If I wasn't installing an ECS blower next week I would be adding the carbon radiator duct and engine covers from Katech to compliment the CAI.
So back on the dyno we go. We make two baseline pulls to ensure our #s are consistent. We are down a few HP due to having the colder nitrous plugs installed, but we still manage 513RWHP/448RWTQ...
Leaving the car strapped in place we removed the factory air box and installed the Halltech system. Install was a breeze and we were ready to spin the rollers in less than 30 minutes.... Results blew me away!!! Our lil cam/header car obviously NEEDED additional airflow.
19RWHP/21RWTQ INCREASE!!!
For anyone who isn't familiar with our C7 modifications...
With these basic modifications we have picked up over 100RWHP @ 6000rpm and over 130RWHP @ 6500rpm....
This graph is the first pull our C7 made on our dyno Vs final #s with the modifications above.
Next up is a cam swap and an ECS blower. We also have several C7s in the shop right now for various modifications. We will post the results as they become available.
