ECS uses a Dynapack. Some people tell me that on a DynoJet I would end up with higher numbers. Either way I am very happy. I was hoping to break the 450 barrier and I did!

Ahh, you must of been on the Dynojet
Just joking. Those are real nice #'s too
When I saw the Dyna results (sheet) my actual #'s are 453.7/427.7 which is really great since I just have a mild cam and my ls6 heads ported!
On the drive home i can't begin to tell you how smooth she runs and what pick-up - WOW

They are CNC'd, we assemble and install. The days of hand porting is long gone unless we are just doing one of our stage 1 ports on an FI car, and the results are usually not as good.
