Default This good?

Quick question, I want everyone elses input. I know a 2000 coupe (not fixed roof) that put down 365rwhp stock with cam ONLY (no tuning, intake, exhaust, nothing, all stock) 6 speed by the way. Is that good, decent, average or what?

Depends on the cam. That's pretty good for just a cam.

Thats pretty impressive if it was just a cam. I can't imagine a cam only WITHOUT tuning that would do that. It would have to be a pretty big cam which would mean that it wouldn't idle that well. Kaley

My cam only '99 put down 399 rwhp with cut outs.

I think my pre-tune was around 270-275

I would agree 265 is pretty amazing with no bolt ons.

One question though, what dyno was it done on.

A dyno-jet will dyno higher than a Mustang Dyno

DONT ask me, lol thats just how the guy did it. I think it was more like he installed the cam, then dynoed it just to see, and while the car was there he did intake and exhaust and all that good stuff.

The cam is the old (original) G5 cam

Glad to hear you got the car home safe nathan. :cheers:

To clear up a few things, i think you may have misunderstood a few things i said, i said that it put down 341 rwhp cam only, this was done with: Cam, springs, push rods, blackwing. After that install i put on a full exhaust with tpis headers, mti x pipe with dual cutouts, ls6 intake and had TSP do the tuning for the car. After all of that was done, the car put down numbers in the high 380's. Maybe that will clear up some issues for you. The dyno was done at TSP :D

The car is quite the attention getter isn't it!!!!! I hope you enjoy it as much as i did. :steering:

I was actually talking about another buddy of mine that just got a vette that I pulled on the highway. But thanks for clearing that up with me.

I cant even begin to explain how much fun the car is! EVERYWHERE I go heads turn!! I LOOOOOOOOOVE it! I dont know how much longer that stock clutch is going to stay though, lol...
