LS3 Auto Basline dyno numbers

I went to Advanced and got a couple baselines on the C6. Robert and crew were great to work with.

I have an A6 with the 2.73 and NPP. Mods are a K&N CAI(Includes reflectix heat guard and propped shroud) and a 160T.

Baselines were made back to back and with the hood closed a few minutes after I arrived. 396whp and then 398whp/393tq! It was at 11.7::1 across all rpms. Explains the 119.5mph traps I guess.

Wow, that's some SERIOUS power for a very lightly modded automatic, as much as 25+rwhp / 20+rwtq over pure bone stock.

Oh I would assume that it's corrected, I'm pretty sure that no one in this day and age would actually try and pass off the raw/uncorrected dyno numbers as their true results.

While I may agree that they don't totally suck as some might believe they have gotten the reputation for being somewhat of a 'hot air intake' LOL...and this is what has me wondering what the car could've dyno'd with a Vararam or similar CAI.

I wouldn't go that far....some might do it without knowing either. There is STD, SAE, actual, etc. Then they forget to mention what type of dyno, etc. When they post, it's STD from a mustang dyno, corrected to dynojet. Maybe accurate, maybe not. I'm not referring to 11secondGP, just from what I'm sure we've all seen on the net.

True, but the K&N CAI likely doesn't make all that much more than stock on the dyno either.

For me it did help.

I might go back and do a stock tune/stock filter pull to see what the difference is. Im guessing ~10whp.

True, it really had to help at least some because there is no way that a near stock (ie: t-stat and opened shroud only) LS3 automatic is making 398rwhp all by itself...I too would guess that it's likely about a 10rwhp gain from the K&N.

Do they?
I thought the only bone stock automatic LS3 dyno numbers we've seen were in the 370/371rwhp range?
