Default dyno results

finally got on the dyno today, got some issues i gotta fix though. first my plugs are fouled up real bad from running rich. second, MAC throttle bodies suck ***, and mine keeps getting bad vac lock and causing tons of driving issues. third, my o2 sensor heaters are toast, so i gotta fix that. the baseline run was 208rwhp, and 262 ft/lb. yeah that was just off the mail order tune so i saw that comming. he then tuned it for the blower and got 330rwhp/355 ft/lb. big improvement, but at 5 k it breaks up due to the plugs he thinks. this was on a very conservative tune also. im hoping to hit 430rwhp when i do a pulley swap and upgrade the heat exchanger. i know the numbers are low right now, but its a safe tune until i can fix the loose ends. as for those wondering about the idle, he couldnt fix it much through the tune so im thinking its just the o2 sensors not heating up fast enough.

yeah but its got soo much more potential. i mean he said he could have hit 350-360 if it didnt break up at 5 k rpms. i figure 430 at the wheels will be no prob with a smaller pulley.

notice he said it was off the mail order tune which is just to get it running and not tuned for the blower.
