- first run is mail order tune. You can see where the power started breaking up because of lean AF ratio.
- second run is John's (woodbridge dynotech) tune from April with 2.5 inch exhaust.
- last run is John's tune from Friday with 3 inch exhaust.
Wonder how much of the gain was from 3 inch and how much from the tune???
Seems to be an endorsement of 3 inch exhaust system.....
The 3inch exhaust helped a lot. Most of the power increase came from the exhaust work. YOu can see down low there isn't much of a difference but higher in the RPM band you can see where the extra 1inch helped. No loss of power because of lack of "back pressure". Less pressure MORE power.
would you mind e-mailing or posting your dyno sheet. I would like to see the curve with the 306.
thanks.

Here you go, I had a dead miss at 3700 RPM that is the downward spike and I found an exhaust leak a week or so after tuning so I think there is another 5-10 left in her with another tune but before I tune again i want to try a BB resinator instead of the stocker to try freeing up the exhaust a little.
Your last tq and HP curves have the shape of mine with the Hotcam and 3 inch exhaust, but yours goes way higher on the scale. I'll never see that 400+ with mine. It is interesting that with the bigger 847 cam and Stage III heads, your HP curve begins to drop off at about the same rpm as mine does with milder setup on both.

wow.. very nice... Let me know how the BB resinator works out.

Have john build you a 383! You will see a 400+ for sure... Are you still going to the dyno day since the car is out of comission.
