Guess my horsepower
2005 Corvette C6 Z-51 6-Speed 30,000 miles
What I have done to the car
Vararam and Throttle body spacer – $390 for both shipped
Ported intake manifold - $225
Port and Polished throttle body – Free I did it myself
Removed cats $50 for replacements so I could get the flange, sold cats for $70
Straight pipe $10
Removed MAF screen – Free
Spark plugs Denso Iridium IT20 1 step colder indexed - $50
Heat shielding around upper radiator hose – Free
Royal Purple in transmission $30
Drained 1 gal of coolant and replaced it with 1 gal of distilled water and 2 bottles of redline water wetter to help the thermal efficiency. The car still has the stock thermostat. Cruising the car runs 192-194 degrees
Amsoil oil and filter
Catch can $20 each. one on PCV and one on FAT
Doubled stock tunnel plates $20
Magnetic drain plug $10
Optima yellow top
Oil cooler 11” x 5 ¾” x 1 ½ “ 130-70264 from JEGS $63
(still using stock oil cooler as well) Fittings and lines $10
Yes it still has the stock exhaust manifolds and stock exhaust.
Have spent about $700 in performance plus $530 for the tune and dyno time.
what kind of horsepower do you think i will put down to the rear wheels
to make things easier on a dynojet with 12.8-12.9 A/F

351 hp bone stock – dyno jet
367 untuned 13.5 A/F on RX7 stores brand new in ground dynojet.
377 hp 357 tq tuned 12.9 A/F 23.5 degrees of timing on RX7 store dynojet by Rob LaSota
After data logging it at Mid-Ohio I detected some knock so I took it back and without changing the tune it put down 398 RWHP uncorrected.
SAE corrected it made 390
Made 4 pulls 2 were 389 hp and 2 were 390 hp. Done pretty much back to back.
87.87 degrees outside temp
29.25 in-Hg
24% humidity
1.02 SAE
Full smoothing
Only thing that was different was I changed my Fresh Air Tube from having a breather to putting it back to stock (connected to the intake) but with a catch can. I also added an oil cooler and switched to amsoil.
390 RWHP 365 Ft/lb Torque for $1200 including a tune.
