15% loss for driveline. Although I suspect with a manual it is closer to 13% with the newer synthetic fluids in the trans and diff.

i did toss it on while we were at the dyno that day and it ran a solid 15.0 af wot and dropped to ~378whp so definitely needs maf scaling. Next time i dyno it will have some ported parts and headers so i cant say what the intake gains will be on its own.

Kudos to you. Take all the criticism about what you should do with a barrel of salt.

If that’s the shop that you plan to continue to go back to as you add parts then the uncorrected numbers from that dyno and operator are exactly what you want.

That’s ok. I’m still interested. I have a couple of bolt ons myself so, it has my attention.

What did you do to learn how to tune with HP Tuners? I only have 1,100 miles on my LT1 so it will be awhile before I will "need" a tune. Have you tuned cars before or just decided to take the plunge?

Before this car I first learned on open source for the subaru brz for about 5 years and then Tune ecu for triumph motorcycles. So no official schooling on tuning but im now working on haltechs for my skyline and my friends rx7. They run pretty strong and safe.
