Does this seem too high???
Dyno'd the car and it put down 346whp/335wtq. All I have done (that I know of) is some sort of CAI and Ti exhaust, looks like the stock tune! I was baffled by the numbers as I was expecting maybe 315-320 tops. It's a 2000 FRC

Seems about 30 hp high for a stock 2000 with only CAI. If the dyno is not happy then you have a very strong car.

Either the dyno is off or you have one stout ride.
What was the air temp, altitude, etc. when you dynoed with the cam?

So it's not stock, or the dyno was miscalibrated.

[QUOTE=Silnus;1578187027]What did you run at the track if you have yet? The trap should tell about how much power your making.[/QUOTE
the track never lies. always tells you how much usable hp your putting to the ground to achieve your et. there are various calculators you can use based on weight, speed at 1320, and et. i find some of them generous like some dynos and i find others a bit stingy too like some dynos. oh i already said that
so i usually average them to get a number.

The car made 414whp with the 227/224 cam and full bolt-ons. I have never heard of anybody putting in a cam and NOTHING else. I thought we were all smart enough to realize that bolt-ons is assumed if one already has a cam.Just one for referance: 443whp

Now, I have the all the same mods but I have a much larger cam and a varraram.
Man, you guys go digging to call ppl out on "lies" dont you? haha now you just look like somebody with too much time on his hands that has nothing better to do then take out his childhood anger on the internet.

Riiiiight. Because its impossible right? lol I am just going of what the guy provided me with (dyno sheet) when i bought it. Who cares what it made tho... They are just numbers...
Holy **** you guys are dicks! The car made 414whp with the 227/224 cam and full bolt-ons. I have never heard of anybody putting in a cam and NOTHING else. I thought we were all smart enough to realize that bolt-ons is assumed if one already has a cam.
The car and old motor had 113xxx miles on it and popped. At that point I bought a low mileage ls6 block, put GTP stage 2 heads on it. Not dynoing the car before I put my new cam in I didnt seem it ideal to claim the newly added hp from the heads so I didnt. BTW, people with that combo usually make 430-440whp, so 414 would be on the low side. Jesus Christ, you guys are rediculous.
Just one for referance: 443whp
