Your torque curve looks very strange?

Hey Tom...

Dyno Tuning is the only way to go...and go faster

..I dont understand why your torque is so much higher than RWHP...

I just had mine done again by Mike Norris after new high flow cats and I am amazed at StuzVette...

Enjoy...and Im still holding the certificate in case I get back up your way soon...

I dont see how its possible to barely have 300rwhp but yet have 400rwtq??? Usually those 2 numbers are fairly equal on a C5.

Something seems strange to me, but I'm certainly no expert.

As he kept tweaking, the torque kept climbing 275, 283, 286, 293, 297 and then 404. That YANK SS-3600 hits like a ****!!

peak torque at 2600 rpms? I'm a little skeptical of the torque....But a great pull, how many did you get in?

The TQ. figure was a spike, that car is not making 400 rwt period. Not to burst your bubble, just a bit of reality for you. Nice looking car.

It's a shame when tuners let bogus dyno sheets like this out. You and your vette are not the issue, the HP looks on par for a basically stock engine. It's just that the tuner should have given you an accurate print out and if they told you that your torque was 404 they are bs'ers at best.

BTW - MTI Racing in Georgia is not affiliated with Motorsports Technologies Incorporated know as MTI located in Houston, Texas. MTI is Houston has been in the tuning business for over 10 years.
