The results aren't what was suspected...actually lower than when we thought. I am going to break it in more and then re dyno it at 1500 miles. Fred has apologized as they are busy, he is putting together a nice video and the results together for us as soon as he can.

For anyone that is interested (and this is a serious post, lol) We have a customer car tomorrow that we will be doing a Boss intake/Steeda CAI/ Kooks long tube setup. The car already has a Steeda cold air/tune, so there wont be a stock baseline, but I could post those results probably by Friday for those who might want to see it on a separate post.

Also, don't get too hung up on dyno results. Take it to the dragstrip, make a few runs, and go by the mph.

I was thinking with the better cams and higher rpm breathing that it would be slightly more. BUT...the car now actually feels WAAAYY stronger from 2500-6000 RPM and pulls so strongly with no flat spots in the power down low. Also the tune gives engine braking to the car that is a lot stonger than factory...I feel that the TracKey tune must do something similar. It honestly feels like a different car, more raw, like the throttle is actually connected via cable and not a wire, no rubber band feeling to the throttle. Also with my new exhaust and the cammed idle the car sounds unreal! I drove the car to my auto x on Saturday and as i was letting the car warm up before leaving people just kept coming up to me and asking about the car because it sounds so great!! I now have approx 850 miles on it and feels stronger everyday. I think this motor might take a while to break in...

This is almost as bad as a long car ride with your kid in the back seat kicking your seat back chanting "are we there yet?" / "when are we gonna be there?"
Visualize the Clark Griswold melt down toward the end of Christmas Vacation and substitute "Mr. Shirley" with the name/alias you want to blame for making us wait for these results, now 13 days later. Heh. Just forget the part about dragging him back to your living room with bow on his head, just *show me the money!!!* (results).

I wouldn't worry about the actual number that you get from the dyno. I would care about the gain you got from stock to the mods and tune. Every dyno reads different. Its a tuning tool not a measuring stick. I am very curious to see the graphs from this dyno session.

I can't believe no one else has put theirs on a dyno. My local shop lost one of their techs to medical leave recently so they're backed up. Otherwise I'd get mine down and have it dynoed. (Dynojet). I really wanted to wait for TracKey and run them both since I don't really care that much, but am curious about the basline. I really am more interested in comparing the two.
