Dyno results not bad
Just pick the car up from the tuner,
2005 m6 Mods:
Slp cold air
B&B headers, X pipe
Corsa exhaust
160 stat
370rwhp/365tq
Then just added
Cam 222\224 581 lsa 112
Ported heads, intake, throttle body
415rwhp\408rwtq
Dynojet dyno
The tq is huge in the low to mid rpm. I'm happy but was thinking that the hp would be higher. The tuner said that the car was hot and the numbers could have shown a little more power.
I did all the work myself total parts and tune was about $1500 usd
What do you guys think?
Numbers okay?
Thanks to Cory Harris for the intake/tb
and CYA-VETT for the instructions
Both really helped out a lot.

When I had nothing but headers,mild cam and tune I was at 406.5 in an A6, but less torque than you(drat that M6...lol)With your ported heads, I would've expected a little more HP, but all in all it's not bad.

you should have made more power than that. You really don't get much from a ported LS2 manifold or TB. Put a FAST manifold on and your power will go up. As for the heads, define mildly ported??? How many CC's were the ports opened to? Is your exhaust flow 75% of the intake flow? Were they put on a flow bench and measured at .600 lift. If it was any kind of a port job your intake flow should be 320-330 CFM at 600 lift, and your intake CC's at around 205. My LS2 with 215 ET heads a FAST 90, and only a 224/228/581/588/114LSA's made 461rwhp/435rwtq. Without knowing what kind of port work was done, you might be as good as your're going to get with what you've done. My opinion.

Given the heads and headers your numbers are probably about right. Some forget that the biggest performing combos all have big name heads and American Racing or LG headers. You also have a very mild cam. Much milder than many choose to run. With those things in mind... your numbers look about right. For the amount of money invested I'd be pretty happy!

i had a head cam on a c5 and it put 371rwhp with shorty headers. the heads were stage 1 and it looked like all they did was different valves. most of my power was from the cam
