Default Low boosted LQ4 numbers

i dont have the sheet but the a/f was alright stayed around 10-11 when boosted.
DynoDynamics
Max Power: 364fwhp 294 rwhp
Max Torque: 380fwtq
temperature: 104F Humidity: 75%
Stock LQ4+cam+sts at 6 psi
i certainly don't like the numbers, i dont know if the truck needs a retune or has somethiing wrong with it. it was dynoed with a quiet summit muffler. the cuout wasnt working but i think with the cuout open it would give~20hp.

DynoDynamics won't show you the inflated numbers that the DynoJets will. On a DynoJet you would have about 450ft-lbs of TQ, basically just add 20% to your numbers to compare.

It might be a little on the low side, but still not bad numbers.
