Even though the car is bone stock, I thought I would get better hp than this. Only about 78 degrees this am. What do you guys think?

I figured I'd hit 365-375rwhp
I also thought that there was a big gap in the run results.
Another guy there (Viper) ran about 530hp and he commented that at Corvettes of Dallas, he ran 565hp. Is there that much potential difference in dyno results?

If this is all I'm getting, let the mods begin...:cryying::cryying:

Yeah, running way too rich.
I'm taking it over to HPP and let them do a tune.
Bone stock in 75 degree weather should be pilling 365-370rwhp
If not I'll go ahead and install a CAI and a do a custom tune.

Would 400 be attainable with intake and a tune?

I don't like that I only made 370 w/intake and factory tune.
It's possible, but you would have to have good air and a low DA. Also, cooler temps outside help as well.

FYI: It was good conditions when I dynoed my car and not too many make that much. Most make between 365-385.

I also put a tune on it and it did not pick up any HP.

A few years back a custom dynotune was around 450 bucks with a chip..not sure what the going rate is now...if you can afford it, get an xcal2 or xcal3 which gives u the luxury of being able to log the car.

They quoted me $350 for a custom tune.

That's without a chip - add $150 for the chip.
A custom tune is run on the dyno with all adjustments made. They also quoted me about 45.00 to do a plug change along with the tune.
