443.9 rwhp 456 rwtq. that is with Maganacharger's tune
and LG longtubes. I thought at least 460 at the wheels.
But it was 90 degree's and very humid. Car is running a little too
rich with this tune. Didn't have time for a cool down, got there
and pulled straight on the rollers at 3:00 pm in Atlanta, it
was hot. Anyhow I see some dyno tuning in the near future.

TQ #'s higher than HP #'s is not unusual for a positive displacement blower. The HP is limited to the size of the case, and the resulting maximum airflow.

That is not to say that it would not benefit from a good dyno tune.

Great numbers!

I notice you are from Columbus and had work done in Atlanta. Who did the install and who did the tune? What aftermarket hood are you using? I ask because I live near Atlanta and may also want similar mods. Can you list all your mods? Thanks! Good numbers, but I agree a good tune will probably find more power.

I did the install myself, I was in Atlanta for a F-Body gathering(staff)
we had a deal going with Dynolab so I took the vette up to see what
it would put down. As for tuning all I have is the Magnacharger tune,
done my Magnacharger. The hood is from RK Sport.

I dont have any good pics of the car yet. I dont know if I can post the
name of the company that I was told does great work with S/C in
Atlanta, cause they are not sponsors of this board.
I'll get it to ya.

Definitely get the car dyno tuned, preferribly with the blower cool. The Magna tune is very conservative and runs rich. Plus, they probably didn't make any changes for headers.

How much boost did yours put out?
