E Force 1594 weak hp numbers
I recently installed the 600 hp e force kit on my 05. This Saturday I drove the car up to Brenspeed and had a dyno pull done to see the hp/tq to the wheels. 3 pulls 440hp/445tq WTF no matter what ,should it only do 440hp?The car has kooks long tubes w 3in catless x pipe and B&B BULLETS. I read guys seeing 500-540 rwhp with same set up. It does have the 3.5 pulley. Any suggestions. Could I put tune in for 1593 by chance ??? Would running car on dyno w/o traction control off affect the numbers? Anything.

If I were to SC a C6, I would go with a centi mount such as Vortech or Procharger - those generate more power than a top mount roots type. For example - my 2003 C5 A4 Coupe (LS-1 rated 350HP (crank) Dyno'd 304 RWHP w/just Borla catback. Added Procharger, LG lt headers and it Dyno'd 474 RWHP. The boost was set to the Procharger recommended 7lbs.

He posted elsewhere that he is running the supplied Edelbrock tune which is for an otherwise 100% stock car on a car with headers and cats deleted. That would be a no-no
