Get a cam if you want 370 to the wheels.

yeah, those numbers are way too low.
Why don't you try another dyno? How does your car run like? What's you 0-60 time etc?
I would think about fuse pull but you said you got a tune..maybe wrong gas?

Keep us posted bud, good luck!

thanks. and I don't have any 0-60 times since any mods.. but I always use 93 nothing else.. also I accidently posted in transmission forums. i cant figure out how to delete it though sorry about that.
and my car runs fine... it doesn't do anything that stands out.... it sort of suprised me how low the numbers were /:
could something be causing it not to get the full power ?? compression? knock?

What kind of tune, you did not specify ?
Many V6 guys run HP or IPF
Is there another shop you can get your car dyno'd at that has the same brand dyno ?
Start at the dyno readings first, might not be the car..

Steve is great! And will go out of his way to help you out. I would think its the dyno perhaps the dyno guy can provide you with some comparable car's numbers as it would show if they were all on the low side too. I really doubt your car is anywhere that low.
