No, not with stock heads.

This car with the ported and milled heads however did require the pistons to be cut.

I need more RWHP!!! HELP

I just got back from deployment a month ago and added some parts to my baby... Just dynoed it last week and tuned it, Im only getting 360 RWHP/ 372 LBS out of my 2010 SS. With CAI, Long tube headers and X-pipe. Custom tune. Does that GX6 cam really give you that much that much? I want to be 450+ RWHP. Help me out fellas.

Is this an auto car or manual?

Look at the mods on this car....a bit more than just a cam and headers but yes the cam should be worth a solid 60-70 rwhp.


Auto cars with LT's, CAI, and the G6X3 should put down 440's, and manual cars with just those mods should put down 475-490 rwhp on a DynoJet SAE corrected.

Depending on supporting mods where your car would fall into place.

Remember also if it is a auto car you will have to do the DOD delete and will need a stall converter around 3400 RPM stall.

I'm still scratching my head trying to figure out why I only put down 467/425 with this cam (mods in sig). Tuning??

Could be tuning..

What dyno was used? Did you get a before dyno?

The lowest I have seen from our shop or heard from one of our dealers using a Dyno Jet has been 472 rwhp. That car was using OEM mufflers, but long tube headers, high flow cats, and a BBK cai. The car was also on an aftermarket 22" chrome wheel which didn't help.

Currently I don't have our LS3, LS7, and LS9 heads on the site. We are porting the OEM castings. Right now I have a good sized listed of options depending on the car so pricing varies as to what is being done of course

What are the baseline numbers, the graph shows you are making 428rwhp with LT headers? That is over 20hp higher than normal which means the final numers are probaly 20hp higher than most dynos. but still 120+ is impressive!

Every dyno is different. I think this one is on the high end and yours may be on the low end. IMO there are not two chasis dyno in the world that will give the same numbers. Look here for more info http://www.hotrod.com/techarticles/g...g/viewall.html

Dyno numbers from the same car on the same day are usfeull for tuning and to see ABOUT how much power you made with the mods. Only way you get accurate numbers is on an engine dyno which isn't realistic for us users because of cost but some shops test this way.

My baseline without the cam was 422/420, however it was on a different dyno though both dyno units were Dynojet. That being said it's still awfully low...

No not really...if you look at our dyno's as well as our headers installed at other shops they put down 418-430 rwhp pretty consistently. True it is on the higher side but no where near 20 higher than normal...maybe 3-5.

The car did have a cold air intake as well as our 3" mufflers and a tune during the baseline.

It baseline dyno'd 422 on the same dyno roughly the same week as it did the 467 number?

If that is the case then I would look at some other things like tune, plugs, fuel...

^This. Or your car could just be a "dyno dud" from the factory, like mine (maybe I didn't break it in hard enough when I got it?). I have an M6 too, but it's always put down L99-like numbers; should be making 20-30 rwhp than I am.

if you're on a mustang dyno, those are pretty good numbers
