Seems like very little compared to how everyone else exaggerates.
They say the 02 SS is fastest Camaro Chevy ever made. back in 70s they had 350CI with 350HP on the motor, ur sayings my LT only might have 285. That comparison seems weird unless back then they used Lead Driveshafts and all?!!

as for dyno pricing, you can get like 2 or 3 runs for 40 bucks and sometimes even less at the dyno days..
usually parasitic loss is something like 15-17% maybe more
another thing you should know is that magazines print what the print because companies like hooker pay them to do it.. they arent just average people like us printing what they find on their own research..

How many of you actually goto that Quaker State Stake & Lube place every Thursday?

a custom tune. lt1 edit is one of many programs. i would ONLY go to a custom tuner. but that costs money.
rev xtreme is in brandon. so is coastal dyno. RX specializes in fbodys.

I just wanna know where ur gettin the 285 horse. If its a 94 or 95 like i think urs is its 275 to the crank. I have a few bolt ons. Longtubes,twin 52mm TB,Hooker Y-pipe. AFPR, programmer,SS hood and ram air. I put down 280 HPand 379TQ. On a 50 shot it went to 315 HP just under 4 and a quater for TQ. It takes alot to put some serious #'s down. Go to Sunshine this Wed night and well run. You run 8.8 stock pretty much. I run 8.69 N/A. Well see

thats not BONE stock...i got pcmforless tuning right now and need to take a trip to a dyno to get my a/f, but when i asked sam @ coastal about dyno-tuning my car he said i was better off just staying with my tuning, or lt1edit. any other advice?

pcmforless is probably the best mail-away tune available, the only advantage to dyno tuning is that the tune is specific for YOUR engine.. basicall you can watch someone test and tune it and you will get the best all around results.. best idea is to wait til you get some heads to match that cam of yours before you step up from your tune otherwise it is probably pointless..
