I was there for the tuning and dyno runs. Hey, my L99 when stock only pulled 303 and 305 rwhp on that dyno (w/ powerflow axle back).
Strong LS3 Camaro’s can pull 340-345 on it however.
Link below is my run on that dyno, (at that point, a recent LS3 had pulled 343)
The owner bought this dyno, not to get the highest numbers, but because the Superflows load the car more representative of what real world would be like, and therefore it’s makes a much better tuning platform.
From what I’ve been told, all the Superflows read on the conservative side. Ted Jannetty who runs a superflow said, “ this one is just down right stingy and has no expaination for it”
So from a bystander’s point of view, this is what I got out of the session:
One:
Representative baseline = 340-345rwhp
Run with only Whipple and a tune =516rwhp
Result = 49.6%-51.8% (so lets just say 50%, most manufactures claim 35%-40%)
Two:
IATs were in the high 90s,
where as typical maggies are 130-140
Three:
Dyno operator overlaid several dyno runs of other camaros from their database
No stock supercharged car had done better.
They had one LS3 Maggie with CAI and Longtube headers that was close. The Whipple was still better on top, but the Maggie breathing better with longtubes was a bit better in the midrange.
Note: they were not able to dial in the optimum amount of timing, and they kept it in a safe zone.
Everyone was impressed. Miller Time
