Default dyon Info?

I am purchasing 04 Z16. It will have about 600 miles semi hard miles on it. My question is: How many miles should I put on the car before I'm able to put it on the Dyno for a base line run? I plan on putting a carbon fiber power duct with a blackwing filtration system. I will also have the engin LS1 tuned on the dyno. Can A tuner use the LS1 program to tune a LS6? Is there any diffrence? Not loking to go to wild on the mods due this being a collector's edition car.
See you all at Bowling green in April for the C-5 bash.

Mike :cool: :cheers: :flag :thumbs:

After the 500 mile break it go for it. My Z has only 4k on it and its 1st run on the dyno was 2500 miles and the C5 before that was 1st on with less than 1000

You can put the car on the dyno anytime after break in. I like to wait until at least 3,000 miles though. The car actually gains power as it's driven. All my Vettes dyno'ed higher after 5,000 miles than with fewer miles on them.

Thanks for your reply. What type of numbers (RWHP/torque)should I expect to see?
