Dyno tuning with Halltech Stinger
Took my 02, Z to the dyno last night. We make five pulls. The best RWHP was 358. I had just installed Halltech Stinger intake and tuned the computer. I really though I would get a little more HP to the wheels. The engine temp. would run 225 degrees F, the oil pressure would go to 70 psi. Is this normal? We took the RPM to 62-65K.

your motor sounds way too hot after 3 pulls my car temp is around 190deg with 160 t-stat.

It's been my experience that the RPM in a Z is directly realted to the temp, when I'm really putting my Z through it's paces the temp shoots up in no time. 230 or 240 is nothing on an autocross track.

I'm sure the Formula I boys would love to have a lookie see at this engine, best they can do is around 20K RPM
However, for whats its worth, I agree with the fellow above, your temp seems a bit high for some reason.
I have a Halltech too on an otherwise stock LS1, and won't bother to Dyno tune until I get headers and hi-flow cats, etc..... Let us know more about this as you address the Temp isssues, I want to learn what you learn.
