Default Different setup or a new tune

Hey Guyz

I had a question on mind, i pulled the no. of my last tune and compared them with some other no. that i have made before and found out that it is a little low, my setup is as follows:

K&N Intake
80mm BBK TB
BBK SSI Manifold
UD Pulley
stock Fuel Injectors
GM Performance hot cam 219/228 .525/.525 With LS6 springs.
Comp Cams Lifters
Summit Racing 1.7 Rockers
Trickflow Push Rods
Supermaxx Longs
Magnaflow X Pipe
BB Triflo Bullet
Stock Converter and a 3.15Diff
Shift Kit

And i get 350 on the wheel... WTF where could i have gone wrong..

I'm thinking of trying i different cam or maybe go for some 3.73 gears, what do u guys think?

Its a bit low but not that much--I figure with your mods to have about 80 RWHP gain---Stock is around 280--so you should be around 360-even with a tune--I had at one point a very similar set-up and had 355 RWHP--hard to say why it's off---maybe some spark retard going on killing some power--without knowing the WOT AFR can't really say what it exactly can be--fuel may be overly rich/lean--with the 80MM TB your MAF tuning can be way off--
PS not a huge fan of the GM hot -cam-----
