Damn I never wouldve thought you would get 51hp out of that small of a cam. Post up the dyno sheets in the dyno section. Eventually one of these days when I bored Im going to make a dyno reference thread in there so that would be a good thread to add.

 

Cody, when I go over a friend's this week who has a scanner, I'll scan my dyno sheet. I think he made a mistake. Or I'm reading dyno sheet incorrectly. Cause it looks like 25 ftlbs. & 38 hp according to my max from the last time I went there. My minimum is lower now, my guess is cause the curves are pushed up the RPM range. My avg. tq. went up 31 RWTQ. & avg. hp went up 27 RWHP. Yet he showed me on another graph, my HP went up 50RWHP. I'll be calling him in the next wk or so, after I go to track & let him know what I thought of the tune too, so I wanna know if I read it right.

I'll take 30, but 40 or 50 is even better.

Said my AFR leveled out too. So before too long, I be puttin in my Autometer wide band. I gotta do my mount for gauge(s) first. Brown wire (it's for the peak/ recall & warning WOT switch) connect to wide open throttle switch, req'd for functionality. Anyone have pics or do I use something from an NOS kit specific to DBW? A pic & or p/n on how y'all setup your DBW w/. this would be awesome.

 

LC1 one is the only way to go with the digital output from everything Ive read. Ive got one ready to isntall but my son decided he wanted to be born this weekend so the wideband kinda got put on the backburner

Prosport gauges seem pretty nice too, they look good and seems everyone who has ran them has had good luck along with them being HALF the price of autometers and dont need a controller if you want to go the nexus route but the prosports still have peak warn and recal functions.

30ish hp would be more what Id expect from the results we'd seen from hp/et calcs but it should be great for the blower.

Congrats Cody!

Ya, I already have the Autometer w/b. And the Cobalt Boost, FP, & a DPIC to play with.
Only other gauge I may get is trans temp, but an SSS cluster would render that as unnecessary. Still on the fence on cluster.

Oh ya, when Dynatech 1st built their headers, #5 pipe kicks up near steering shaft. My plug wire is dangerously close, so I ziptie #5 & #7 wires not so they touch pipes, but to prevent burnthru. He wanted to run a cooler plug to stop knock he was gettin, even tho I had 91 in tank. I changed plugs, & didn't realize I broke the ziptie holding them together. On last pull, cats heated up a orange glow, next thing I know, I see a tiny fire. Apparently the ziptietouched, melted, & out it went. So I burned part way thru a plug wire. So now I gotta come up w/. a better plug wire solution. I jerry rigged a ziptie to another then tied them away from header to prevent further melting of plug wire. Let me tell u, that header pipe was awfully hot. HOT! cause it wasn't but a few minutes after that pull.

Oh ya, get rid of that duplicate post.

 

So Stop beating around the bush, whats the before and after #'s? Whats your a/f? What dyno? What gear, unlocked locked?
NicD had similar results with 50+ in spots and 40peak hp gains i believe.

 

Use some chicken wire on the plug wire or get some that are bent 90 degrees at the boot

 

use the compair function in HPT...there is a tab that will list ALL of the differences between two tunes...its pretty cool, but you'l get lost looking at different tunes...you did not call me for a dyno appointment?

 

+1

Give us some numbers man

 

It isn't the most visually appealing, but here was my solution to burning the plug wires on #5 & #7 cylinders.


Also, 90 degree boots don’t work the best on LS type motors due the plugs being so inset so far down in the heads. A better solution would be wires with 130 degree boots, such as the ones below.
