    My buddy has 85mm t/b,prof. prod. intake,stock injectors,LT's pacesetters,224/224 cam with comp.918's,SLP lid, ported MAF,4000 stall with 3;73 gears with a tune. He did 372 hp at the rear! The dyno at one of the shows had some problems getting a reading because of the converter!! With that cam, and without a tune, it really isnt bad!! Get a tune!! That will wake your car up! You could make 400 easily!!

    If you want to see 390 RWHP uncorrected, just wait till the winter and then redyno.

    However, the better idea is to find out what you car makes when corrected to SAE (typical). At 99.5 deg, correcting to SAE (even without knowing the barometric pressure) would probably net a 3-5% increase in power. That means 370 RWHP would become ~380-390 RWHP, putting you very close to what you thought you should make.

    PS....if you dyno'd in/near Gulfport Ms, I can assure you that your humidity was nowhere near 14%!

    Who tuned it??

    Also, the numbers sound fine. Stall can eat up some power, plus the heat.

    Stick with your stock MAF.
    Just trust me. The aftermarket ones aren't calibrated as well, and will require a tune.

    Stocker is best. Good for 500+ HP.

    Not atypical for a dyno. The hygrometer in the machine is obviously out of calibration, because as you know, southern Mississippi in the summer time is HOT and HUMID!

    Regardless....ask your dyno operator for an SAE corrected version of your dyno pass. That should be just a matter of a few keystrokes and hitting the print button.

    Agree, stick to the stocker and have it ported/polished!!! Aftermarket units are really tuff to tune!! Really hard to re-map fuel/air!
