Your expecting too much man. The HP/TQ #'s you got are pretty decent. Get a real tune + UDP + some gears and enjoy the car. That will cost you about $1,000. The gears alone will feel like +30 RWHP, and the tune will really wake things up for you.
Otherwise, it really is time to up the ante to a blower if you want more HP
those are actually pretty good #'s. Not sure what you are basing your estimates off of, but for a stock motor + CAI + craptastic FRPP tuning...you did pretty good
1st words o' wisdom
damn things are like zombies. each time you think they've all been put down another one pops up

In all actuality, those numbers are about what I'd expect with the FRPP tune. The typical '05-'09 S197 stock puts down about 265 RWHP. The FRPP tune adds roughly 15 RWHP crank (basically the Bullitt tune) which is roughly 13 RWHP. So if I had to take a stab at your RWHP based on your mods I'd have to say about 280. Since the accuracy and repeatability of the dyno has known variance, it sounds to me like you're right on for your mods.
With a good custom tune you should be able to add about 8-10 RWHP. Toss in the UDPs and add about another 5-6.

That stuff is right on, in regards to FRPP calibrations. They are very conservative. You can do a better custom tune with a set of delete plates and/or underdrive pulleys, and you'll be throwing down just under 300RWHP or just over, depending on dyno and temperatures, etc.
Let me know if there's anything Bama can do for you!

And I'm kinda disappointed with the results...
Best run was 276 RWHP and 291 RWTQ
I have a FRPP CAI/tune and Roush extreme exhaust. I know that it is probably FRPP that is hurting me. But still, a friend who has no engine mods dynod with higher numbers, so didn't think the tune would make me LOOSE power.
