Default Stock Dyno Numbers

AT 440 miles my car came in at 471 RWHP. I was told this was good. How does it compare?

I think you're looking for the C6 Z06 section this is for C5's... I wish my car made 471hp stock.

C6 Z06--471 is too high--most around 440--Dyno went goofy

My 04 Z06 put down 375 with Vararam mod only. Does this sound right?

I believe him. My friend dyno'd 466rwhp bone stock on one of the most conservative dyno's in this area. I heard the 08 C6Z06 is better tuned from the factory.

maybe the one you use is HP sad.... dynoing for a power number is stupid. you could be 30 or 40 HP more from what other's put down somehwere else and still be slower and vice versa.

We just dynoed an 08 on our 248 dyno jet and it made 471rwhp bone stock also. Most 06-07's are between 440-455 but the 08's tend to be making more.

That's a pretty big difference. If that is the norm and the 08's do dyno about 20rwhp higher, I would be very surprised GM didn't take advantage of the marketing. A NEW 525 HP Z06 sounds great
