Is 10 HP about the max a chip will give the V8? Anyone done any exhaust upgrades and dyno the difference?

Default Yup.... Manifold Back Exhuast Gets you around 30HP/30Torque...

My first Dyno was done on a great dyno day and the 2nd was done on a very hot and humid day which could account for why i didnt get as much as I think I should have.

Default But that's nothing compared to the 40 HP unveiled with the AmD chip! ;-)

But yea, cat-back is 15HP/20torque at whees too, according to Strat.

Do we have consensus that with the hyperflow, those #s could be 20H/25T?

Default well, the numbers for the exhaust above are in wheels, but if your talking crank...

Strat's numbers should be somewhere around 15HP/10-15T.

Re: Was that a third gear run or fourth gear run?

think you'll go back for another run at it? Would be nice to see that 280+ number hold next time.

Default Yup....

Once I pass 2000 miles on the system I wanna do another. I think I can break 280 easy.
