I had my LS3 throttle body and intake ported and then Dyno tuned. Only picked up 3 HP. I don't think its needed on the LS3. Money could be better spent! I'ts another story on my 06 LS2. I picked up about 7HP on a bolt on car.

Great Info......!!!! What I love to see, someone with objective data vs the famous buttometer dyno. If an engine is getting enough air, it's getting enough air.

My assumption the engine is basically stock with bolt-ons. Perhaps on an engine more heavily modded, you might see more as they require more air.

Good stuff........Thanks!!
