Dyno Results
I finished up my HSR 350. I'm very happy with the results but I'm fighting a few electrical issues. (2 alternators quit in less than an hour of running??)
This was on a dynojet just after my kill switch was tested and the break in oil was still in the engine. Maybe 15 minutes of total time on it....
367 rwhp / 374 rwtq
Lets just say it has more potential and I need more ballast.

It's a whole new ball game now. The 5.5" clutch lets it rev like a two stroke motorcycle and the car came across the scales at 2644 lbs. empty.

Congrats, I think the HSR is the best all around intake for an L98 .

That is light!!
The new car looks awesome, and that torque curve is amazing. Did you go with a custom grind or are you still using the hot cam?

HotCam, TPIS Ported 113's, 3" exhaust with 1.75" headers.......and the original, untouched chip breathing through a MAF.

Stock chip?
You gotta get that thing tuned if so to keep things safe and pick up a noticeable amount of power.

How did the A/F look on the dyno? Pic is hard to see there. Is that 10:1 accurate?

The TPIS ported heads did they use stock valve sizes or bump them to 2.02 1.6's?

Yeah I bet you have more in it, that sim didn't predict too poorly. 394rwhp/367rwtq and you had 367/374. I bet you'll pick up more with a chip too, though maybe this is right where you want to be for weigh in purposes.

Who did you get to port your TPIS plenum & runners?

The tail pipe sniffer was showing in the 10's initially. (My battery was disconnected just prior to the run so that didn't help...)
The plugs look good though.

Those were ported by Holley!
They're ported SO much, it's called a stealth ram now!

You still running those 24SVO's (at 50psi)?

That should be fun!!! Losing weight is the best thing for a C4 and quick reving torque
. If you let the air out of the tires it would be under 2500

A few answers:
On my previous setup I ported the Accel runners, TPIS base and plenum. I didn't touch the HSR.
I'm still using the SVO 24lb injectors. The afpr seems fishy to me but it's holding 50 psi.
The valves are larger than stock but come with the standard CNC port job from TPIS. (sorry can't remember size at the moment)
More details later....late for work.
Thanks again Chris for the sims.
