Default Stock Dyno question.....

For those of you that dyno'ed your NEW C5 stock, how many miles did you put on it before you decided to dyno your car? Does it really make a difference if your at 1000 miles or 5000 miles? I always here about how your car opens up more as you drive it more but i'm sure there is a point where that doesnt really matter any more?

Anyways, I'm looking to dyno mine at around 600-700 miles, so I can get goin on my perf mods!

Thanks for your input

Zack

I don't think there would be any noticable differences between a completely stock LS1 with 500 miles on it, or 1000 miles. I think you would have to wait until at least 5000 miles before you would probably make your highest numbers.

I didn't dyno mine until almost 30K miles. Bone stock, 301 RHP @ 309 RWT on an A4 '98 Coupe.
