I took my car to a dyno/tune shop (Drift Office - Auburn, WA) this weekend to get baseline numbers. Ambient temps were about 60 degrees.
Car is bone stock.

4th and 3rd gear pulls (it looks like 3rd gear pull was a bit off due to lack of the load). It did 419whp and 413lb/ft wtq on Dynojet




LT1 (stock) vs LS3 of a Gen 5 Camaro 1LE (header, intake and tune). They're almost identical except the low end torque advantage of the LT1 engine


and compared to my old Rotrex Supercharged BRZ !! as you can see you can easily fit a Stage 2 Evo into that gap between the two

ugh, thanks ..fixed that now

Nice numbers...it's funny, these cars have the same engine as a regular SS, yet I have seen about five Dyno Jet tests, and on average the SS 1LE's are a little higher. I wonder if the eLSD saps less power? If anything I would have thought the opposite, but this is the fifth one in the 420 range...

Amazed by torque difference in lower RPM range

Good numbers

Very nice comparison, thanks for posting!

I would be more inclined to think it has to do with the rotational mass of different wheels and tires. Slightly smaller diameter helps too.

The SS 1LE's tires are wider though, so that would even that out pretty much. The tires differences are pretty small in relation to dyno rollers in either way though...who knows, it's not like chassis dynos are "accurate", especially when compared to a legit engine dyno.

Two things come to mind ; Gear ratios (we have ~3.70 vs SS with 3.42 I believe) and the wider tires that generate more friction and ultimately more load on the dyno

The final drive is the same in both cars. It's 3.73

thanks for the info Since the final ratio (3.73) was one of the bullet point items when they first released the 1LE, I was under the impression that those might be different
