Can you do it with a snap on scanner in trans mode? Have a nelson tune, or just run it and see what it does?

Default Update / Went to dyno today, first time ever

I finally made it to the dyno for the 1st time with LQ4. Engine has custom cam, 218 .576 114+2, Milled heads .030, 041 gasket, 10.0 to 1 comp. Corsa Cat back and Nelson tune. 298 RWHP 316 RWTQ, What do you guys think? Is this good for what I have? Does it look like I need Headers and Heads so upper horse power doesn't fall like a rock. I need some help please! Will have to try and get in touch with a tuner also! Maybe change some timing and air fuel first? The only good thing was that awesome chevy Corsa sound pulling on the dyno. Sound clip next time!

Your power should not fall off like that.....might need a good street/dyno tune.
