Re: got car dyno tuned this week!

Good dyno numbers with the Hotcam no matter how you correct for it. Congrats. Besides correction factors, STD vs SAE, something else to look for in a dyno graph...The dyno operator can terminate the dyno pull with the remote in a fashion that creates a spike in the dyno graph at the end of the pull which can show a gain in peak power. Look for this spike at the very end of the graph. A trained eye can see that power is peak when the graph curve becomes flat or starts a downward trend before the pull is terminated. Spikes should be removed from the pull.

Since you have an M6, ask the operator for the Excel version of the dyno graphs too; this produces rpm/rwhp/rwtq values in numerical form, which are handy for doing shift point estimates.

Why did you let of so soon? Looks like right about the stock limiter rpm.

Incredible torque curver man!

Re: got car dyno tuned this week!

My old setup, which was basically a Hotcam kit with home ported heads, Hooker LTs, CAI, and true duals put down ~350 rwhp and ~350 rwtq corrected, on a stock tune. I guess I should call my father up and congradulate him for doing a fine job with the home porting Good numbers for you nevertheless.
