That's not bad through an LS1 intake that you have on the car now.

Wait till the "after" numbers, hold onto your seat, we're going to the moon!!!!!!

I can't see your A/f ratio clearly.. It looks like the line is not totally straight... Should be a straight line of around 13.0... I think a good tune would pull out at least 10 more hp.. However, If you are going to put heads,cam etc.. in soon... Just wait to do a good dynotune then..

Those numbers are actually pretty weak. The stock MN6 makes about 310rwhp out of the box. If you have LT's, highflow cats, aftermarket exhaust and a Vararam, you should be making at least 330rwhp with a tune.

Once you do your heads and cam, you will see good performance from your money spent.

It was a 13. I too thought it was going to be closer to 330-40 and was slightly disappointed, but that was the whole point of the pull. It was scheduled for a tune but I found some heads last week and decided to wait until I did the H/C/I mod. I was real curious though what Patrick could have squeezed out of it if he had done the tune, but $200 will buy some parts and the tune'll have to wait till the mods are done.

What's this about HPP's Dyno??

I completely agree. I am surprised with those numbers. My FRC bonestock pulled 315hp/328tq on a mustang weighted dyno. Maybe you need a good tune. But with all those parts your car is going to fly! Good luck with everything.

Remember. Take dyno results with a grain of salt... I've seen stock or baseline dyno results on this board anywhere from 275-330 rwhp.. It all depends on the dyno,, SAE corrections (or not) etc..
