When you pick it up after the cam install and tune, it is like driving a new and totally different car. Enjoy!

cam+dod delete+double spring kit+pushrods is setting me back for a little over $3k

okay, so i just talked to my tuner. He baselined my car at 345 rwhp (cai/headers/tune/portedTB/straightpipes) and that seems pretty low. I am kind of worried that I'm not going to meet my 410rwhp goal now, can anybody chime in on if i will/won't make it?

usafboy · 01-30-2014, 07:42 PM

you were hitting 345 with the bolt-ons installed? even for a L99 that seems very low for bolt-ons.

yeah that's what i said, I'm wondering why my car made so little power.

banter · 01-30-2014, 07:45 PM

baselined? as in without any prior tune whatsoever? if so, I'd say that's just fine, a tune alone at that point would yield probably 30+hp.

matt55 · 01-30-2014, 07:47 PM

All dyno DO NOT read the same (even some from same manufacturer), just look at hp gained.
