Power seems low with mods??

I had my car dyno tuned by Dr Phil, only made 453 to the wheels and 417 torque. Its a 2010 ss with the ls3, k&n cai, tsp 1 7/8s headers, borla muffler, and tsp stage 3 cam, specs are 231/236 and 111 lsa. From lurking on here it seems low, car seems like it has a ton more power but the numbers kinda confuse me.

Dyno calibrations are all over the place. My advice would be to see what it traps at 1/4 mile; and compare that to others with similar mods.

Not only is there variance between dyno to dyno of the same brand there's a huge difference between brands of dynos. Example Dynomax usually gives a better number than a Mustang.

Don't get hung up on numbers... is the car faster? Yes? Good.

Do you think it's fast enough? I'm going to gyess by the end of next week you'll want more... lol

I'm not super familiar with the LS3 motor, but I know that with the L99 and GPI's SMALLEST cam most are seeing about 450 RWHP....
