... your argument is irrelevant, the peak numbers are higher than anything I've seen in the vette/gto world for an LS2 motor with more mods (LT headers).

 

Yet your argument is also, we have had LS1's laydown 340+ RWHP bone stock and have seen bolt-on cars get as high 380rwhp. Many factors play into how the dyno interprets power, also the condition of the car when placed upon the dyno. A car that has been recently driven has warmer fluids throughout the drivetrain and typical has less parasitic power loss for instance. Colder intake and warm coolant temps produce more power output on these cars. Maybe even a looser tolerance build from the factory. But to say that there is no way he laid down the number is a completely wrong statement. He did lay down the numbers. Going to another dyno does not make your statement valid, because now different conditions will exist both for vehicle and dyno.

 

Well to prove all I have Blown97 over on SCR and TWR getting me one free dyno pull on Steen's dynojet to see. I would like to prove my car makes what it makes once and for all.

 

A new one you really will be hard to get under $30k. But a used 04 you could get for around 21-22k.

 

Sweet, I was just comptemplating getting that cam due to the fact quite a few guys on the GTO forums are running them. If I go bigger, that would mean more power correct?

 

I'd really like to see what it lays down w/ proper correction factors. It is possible that you have a factory freak, but again the numbers are substantially higher than other cars w/ an intake, catback and tuning.

 

I totally agree with Ryan.

Anyways, a dyno should be a tuning tool, not get too wrapped up in what someone here or there put down with what. Perhaps a way to measure power gained if variables are consistent, same dyno is used etc.
I have personally seen a local car dyno X one day on a particular dyno, no changes made, and pull different numbers on another dyno.

 

I just signed up over on the Corvette Forum, waiting on my e-mail. I C6 Vette's. Didn't know DTP had posted it over there as well, Frank said he'd post it over on TWR for me since everyone was saying bs to me putting down what I had previously. Shit, DTP can keep on posting it everywhere. I'd still like to find someone with the same mods making what I make. I really don't feel the dyno could be off due to what I put down bonestock.

But I drag race, so the dyno numbers aren't the only important thing to me, as I will like to see what this power has done for me come March at the track

 

A cam with a 112 LSA peaks earlier than a cam with a 114 LSA.

 

Good numbers, I just wish the GTO was a tad bit lighter.

anyways
