This seems to be the general consensus.

Hard to put together a plan for upgrades when I don't know what's done to it.

How many times did they do a pull? They will usually do 2-3 passes. Was this the "peak" numbers or were all the pulls around this number? Put it on a 2nd dyno or at least run it again. Might have been a fluke?

Two pulls. They're both in the OP. 352 and 355 were the results.

This is interesting. Don't know if anyone here has seen it, but theres this guy on youtube (Cleetus Mcfarland) whos got a c5 "go kart". Its basically just a salvage title 6 speed with no body panels on it and the mufflers cut off. Supposedly its also bone stock but he did a dyno run with it and got I think around 345 to the wheels. I wrote this off but then he did another run on a different dyno and got something ridiculous like 360 or 370. Just something to think about... remember it IS youtube and its probably all BS but it does make me wonder a little.
