Default supercharger/cam install

parts are all in (at the shop, not in the car) ..just did a baseline today, not too bad as a starting point, only mods on this pull are intake/headers/exhaust/tune.

Just to clarify.. this is the *before*... 2000 vert, basically stock, just headers/exhaust/tune.
Work starts Monday on the super charger and cam.

To be even more precise.. this is just the starting point curve. more to come. Hopefully somewhere north of 500hp.

Just curious, did you do a before and after dyno. Don't take this the wrong way and i know people say stock is around 300 or less but with if you had a better engine stock and was 310ish which i've seen. Just saying don't yeah at me. Or i'm i misunnder standing and your going back for a final tune?? My IQ low so give me a break. I'm not kidding.

With headers, exhaust, and intake I'm guessing coupe or convertible.

I edited my OP-- not a model of clarrity.

The curves are the BEFORE pic. It's a more or less stock vert, 2000. Just a tune/headers/z06 exhaust and intake.
Monday starts the super charger install. Just wanted to make sure I had a baseline before the work started.

We're putting in an AA supercharger + cam.

I'll post the AFTER dyno pull... after.
