Agreed....those are definately good numbers. Almost too good for the mods.

Then again you have to remember that the dyno is just a tuning tool. Without having a before run and seeing the power increase you don't really know how much the mods really did. It's possible that the pre-mod number could've been just under or right at 400 hp.

It sure seems like the typical LS3 is only seeing about 10 rwhp with just a cat-back and CAI. However....there are always those factory freaks that come out making more power than the average car.

The next step would be to get the thing to the track and see what kind of ET you can get out of it. With over 400 rwhp you should be able to get into the high 12's with no real problem.
