Default CARTEK PACKAGE FINALLY INSTALLED

Wlee it's finally done and tomorrow is the big day, I'm taking my car to be dyno-tuned with the LS-1 Edit and can't wait to see what numbers she puts down. I have the CARTEK stage 2 package with the 224/228 cam, ported LS6 intake, long tube headers, 30# injectors, no cats and B&B exhaust. I will also be doing a couple of pulls with my TNT wet nitrous kit. Does anybody have a guess what this might produce on the dyno, I'm so stoked I don't know if I will be able to sleep tonight. Bob

Doesn't anybody have an educated guess as to what this car will do on the dyno? I will be taking it to Cerra racing in Rock Island for the tune, thanks in advance. Bob

I assume LS1 heads?

With a good tune, and since your looking for a guess, I would guess 420rwhp. Probably more as you tweak the tune.

ALOT OF FACTORS TO LOOK AT.....6 SP OR AUTO
LS6 HEADS OR LS1 REAR GEAR RATIO
DID YOU GET THE COMPLETE X PKG OR THE LATEST REV X PKG???

THERE ARE TOO MANY VARIABLES

JUST HANG ON TILL YOU GET THE REAL #S AND HOPE THAT THE GUYS WORKING WITH LS1 EDIT KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING........

TOO BAD JULIOIS NOT THERE TO DO IT

I agree with the above, but I will guess 430rwhp. Your B&B shorties are the bottle neck. But that will be a very nice car to drive an haul butt in! Also, nice wheels on that beauty!
