just curious but you sure those dyno #'s are right? those are the lowest i have seen on an ls1.
Those numbers are off a Mustang MD-250 dyno... they are known to read out lower numbers than what you would get off a Dynojet. Also, his clutch was slipping.

Richard does autocross, but I guess you don't get going 100mph during your run.

Not sure how much of an effect the clutch had on the numbers but it was pretty much toast. Anybody in the know as to whether or not the computer will be affected as far as clutch set up and shift points. I am having trouble in the higher rev ranges. Almost impossible. Goes in tomorrow for a look.

What kind of troubles are you having? You should post about the problems on the VIFBODY board as well... SRK and BPS can be very helpful.

the computer has nothing to do .. or isnt the slightest bit concerned with ur clutch slipping and shifting gears ... if u have a slipping A4 then yeah it would concern the PCM .. but in ur case .. the slippy clutch will rob u of HP on the dyno most certainly . but the computer couldnt care less

mechanical. that was the problem. The guys at Island Muscle car had to build up an adjustable linkage and now we have a positive disengagement on the clutch. Works good now. Rev it up.
