Dyno graph for my LE1 setup

As promised heres the dyno Graph for my new LE1 setup

Make sure to read the thread posted earlier in the week
http://web.camaross.com/forums/showthread.php?t=497483

First run was 378, then 381, then 383 hp
360 tq
I think if we kept running it, I would have gotten higher on a 4th pass. For some reason the hotter it got, the better it was doing

Nice numbers for an LE1! I didn't think they made that much power.

TQ curve looks as flat as you could ask for.

I bet it is real fun to drive.

I just love it for highway driving. Its extremely smooth in 6th at 1400 rpm, and it just leaves everyone behind like they are parked even at 60/70 mph

The mileage is very good also, I have not filled up and I have driven 225 miles including the dyno runs, city driving, and about 8 very fun highway onramps and am still at 5/8 of a tank right now

I cant say eneugh good stuff about this package, i just wish i had done the le2

It looks like Thunder Racing took care of him.

Your LE1 setup looks great. Will you post the flow numbers for your LE1 heads?

PcmforLess did my tune, and i was amazed at how spot on the air/fuel was for a mail order tune. Bryan helped me out big time.

Theres no way i would pay those Pirates $550 to tune my car at ThunderRacing, they are just the closest dyno to me.

Not only did ThunderRacing make me wait over an HOUR and a HALF standing in their lobby for my dyno which I had scheduled a week in advance, but they kept insisting it would be "5 min" when they knew they had sold an hours worth of my time to the guy before me.

I was steaming by the time i finally got on the dyno, but when i saw my numbers, I was so happy that i completely forgot.

I dont have any head flow numbers cause ThunderRacing screwed me over on that too. When I got my heads from Lloyd I scheduled some time with them on a saturday morning, then drove over an hour and brought my heads. When I get there, they said that I would have to leave them and they 'might' be able to get to them in about 5 HOURS. I guess they expected me to just stand there for 5 hours. They darn well knew i drove from Lafayette just to bring them. I was so upset I just left.

That sucks to hear. I've always been very happy with Thunders service but i've only ever ordered parts over the internet. Sorry to hear they treated you like crap, hopefully its not a sign of their service going in the crapper.

Thunder has amazing technical ability (go look at their customers' cars), and they can give you alot of help and direction with your projects. The service in the shop is also top notch and one of the guys in the shop probably spent a full hour helping me plan my LE1 buildup.

My dissapointment is with the front office's inability to honor or plan appointments

Nice #'s, a/f is a bit lean I would have pcmforless tweak it a bit, other than that its pretty damn impressive. Get some track #'s now.

I'd like to second that. Looks a little to lean. Better to fatten it up a bit and maybe lose a few ponies than play on the dangerous side. Iv'e been told the dyno is less of a load on the engine than wot on the street.
