going to Proven Power in Temple Terrace in 30 minutes. Should have some sheets scanned and a video up within 3 hours. I will shoot the video in 720P, so my excitement or disappointment will be in high quality.

NICE..fingers crossed...I'm anticipating over 300tq and just shy of 300whp...like 290 and some change or so? Should be interesting!

Results are in, just got done scanning the Sheet. I re flashed to stock in the beginning, and netted 250/259WHP. (This is with an intake keep in mind.) I then Flashed to the tune for the 2nd and 3rd run.
Here are the end results. I am happy with how conservative it is. And its the perfect amount of power. This is also in 90+ degree temps, with a bit of heat soaking taking effect. So other results WILL vary. I imagine in cooler temps a much higher gain will be better, and a stock air box might help you out too.



So yeah 300Ftlbs of torque
I have a feeling if I have done more than 3 full runs I may have gotten a bit more HP after the tune "set in."
Vids will be up in a minute

"Stock" Dyno run.
"Tuned" Dyno run.

I highly recommend these guys too, 3 runs for 30 bucks, you can't beat it.

I am sure I am making a bit more than that. I am going to go back again another weekend when it isn't as humid. Track times should speak for themselves. I am happy with 270/300. And my clutch will be too. They were also very impressed with the Air2Fuel ratios. And the Torque comes full on around 2500 Rpms. I also failed to mention, this is only the 91 tune, and I was running citco 91Oct. 93 seems to have a bit more kick. I am also pretty impressed how much my car put down with the stock tune.

Here are some pics

sounds like a very optimistic dyno for your stock tune. You must have had the weather in your favor. From what I see in the dyno thread, you should have the highest stock tune for an SS/TC if thats correct.

By the way, I am only at 20PSI

Same dyno for both numbers... but I don't care about numbers. I don't build my car for this site I build it for myself.

I like the ability to change my tune, for weather, and mods or if I just feel like pushing the bar...

Believe me it's not a "happy" dyno. Just a very accurate one!

I would like to use the accurate dyno next time I am in NC, so I can see what I am really putting down then.

Damn...I was getting all excited about the possibility of another canned tune, but those numbers are decent, dont get me wrong, but it's still not up to par wit others yet. Hopefully they will update the tune for 93 and tweak it a little more. What matters most is that youre happy with the tune though, and it sounds like you are.

What happened to the 40/55 claim on their site?

I am going to run the tune a bit longer and give it a shot next weekend. I am going to change the spark plugs out and see how much that helps me. I looked at them today, and they are a bit rich from before the tune.

Also remember, other peoples results may be different from mine

You either have some kind of factory freak...or the dyno you ran on was a bit...happy.

I'm going to lean towards the second one though. For you to dyno stock OVER what it's rated at the crank is ludicrous...I don't buy it. Again different dynos show different things on different days of the week during different weather conditions.

And...your tune is a *****-out 93 octane tune...I like my clutch...which is why I didn't want something ***** out like Trifecta in the 1st place.

And jesus Christ you dynoed in 95 degree weather...damn I'm glad I live in Ohio..sometimes. I'll dyno after I get mine in better weather conditions. But hey +20whp and +40wtq is not bad with heat soak and 95 degree weather on a 91 octane tune. Can't wait till they come out with 93 tunes!

I was hopin for at least 280's but i think thats fair for 95 degrees. The stock ecu obviously turned up the boost to develop that 250hp stock number, something the aftermarket tune will NOT do.

Im thinking that with cooler temps the stock car will dial it down, still make 250, and with the tune you should see closer to 285whp. Looks like they are mirroring GM stage 1 torque curve so they can honor that warranty.

Im thinking you may have had a higher number by running the tune 1st and without heatsoak. 4th gear in a garage is gonna warm things up!!!

Yeah all the fans in the world couldn't get my IAT's down. I am going to consider a Cryo kit for my intercooler when I get in AZ in July

I ran the tune last though, because I wanted to do the without tune numbers first. Lesson learned, i am going back next weekend.
