Your power seems to peak funny just like stock did. I wonder if it can be fixed to smooth the curve a little. What is your max timing? Were you knocking? How did the fuel trims look?

Does look weird, whats even stranger is he is making less power after 5k than stock. Anyway you could post up a log Stevo?

Well did you and steve get your trims inline before the dyno tune? Not trying to question the tune I just know 3 pulls on the dyno it is impossible to get the trims inline. And about the knock just ask ff ace about it, az and the lnf dont mix.

Your numbers sound right on target for an AZ summer dyno. With a KN drop in and GMS1 I made ~260/300 (give or take a few, can't remember the specifics) and two summers ago I baselined at 227/262.

They did 7 pulls,It was way too hot,On a different tune he pulled 298 tq but was knocking really bad.they even spraid the intercooler and still it's just too hot.Steve dyno'd his vortech mustang and he lost like 60whp just from heat.

he played with them for a while,just too hot too make good power,but the LNF does seem like a bitch to tune and not get any knock.I only dyno'd 298WHP when I should be at 346whp jk plus steve said that dyno reads a little low,Im not sure about that though,im no dyno expert.

I bet it does feel better. Are you going back and getting the rest of the tune finalized? I have seen what intakes do to fuel trims on the lnf. You need to get the rest of the mid and low range trims worked out. Everyday driving feel and fuel mileage will increase.

Out of curiosity, do you guys let your cars warm up for a minute after starting them or do you just start driving since it's so stupid hot anyways?
