Cool Le2 383 1st Dyno Run (mail Order Tune!)

Not bad for a mile above sea level. Needs a little fuel up top and idles inconsistently but otherwise tip top!



Next a dyno tune just didn't have time today.

Thanks to:
Loyd, Geddes Machine, PCMForless, David Bills, Injuneer and the countless others input on this forum!

You're right. That makes sense.

That took a little wind out of my sails. We'll see what the extra fuel up top will do? A wonder how much is left in her? Just started the thing two weeks ago so I haven't really touched anything yet.

Also, need to get it to the track. Today is opening day here in sunny Colorado so I didn't want to fight the crowd. I still need the lowering brackets welded in as well. Otherwise ready to go tho.

That depends on the accuracy of the dyno setup and corrections used.

I'm making more power than you with racetronix 32lb injectors so I doubt yours are maxed out, expecially since you are a mile above sea level and your uncorrected #'s are probably below 400rwhp. Are you still running the stock fuel pump?

The graph appears to be SAE corrected by the scales on the side.

Yes I know that, thats why I said he probably made <400rwhp uncorrected since he said he's a mile above sea level... His uncorrected #'s are what he should use to determine his fuel demand since that is what the motor is actually putting out.

Damn good numbers! That'll take the wind out of the sails of a few LS1 owners!
