Congrats Thomas!!!!
I just talked to Keyser and he's pretty sure he can make some worthwile gains with the chip since you're running a pretty safe tune at the moment as far as timing goes, plus with that A/F he can add more fuel as well.
BTW, for those who don't know the conversion. Figuring an 18% driveline loss Tom just hit 260 HP at the crank! Way to go man!

What did the guys at the dyno shop think of the car?
Also, how many miles are on the engine now?

Wow kickass numbers! The chip really didn't seem to do much though. I don't see how the chip is worth it when you could just tweek the fuel with the apexi for less. Your running 19lb injectors right? What MAF? Is the car returnless? Make sure you monitor your engine temps the hybrid gets hot. CougarGT and I have our work cut out for us if we are going to beat those numbers

I should be dynoing within the next couple of weeks.
Keyser has his work cut out for him also :biggrin:

How is it in the chip if it barely made a difference in the dyno runs? I would have expected the torque to drop dramatically without the chip in there and the hp a bit to. I wonder if the computer needed to be reset on the run without the chip.

The reason is, this is an untuned chip with a very safe program in regards to timing advance. I specifically asked Keyser to neuter it so the engine would have a good break-in period. Also, if you look at the A/F ratio it is in need of a little more fuel as well. I see him putting down close to 220 at the wheels once the chip is tuned. Remember, this was just the initial dyno to get the base numbers and A/F ratio for the retune.

Looks like there are some places for a little improvement through the curve, but the top end looks rather stable. I doubt you'll see 220 at the wheels, but I'll bet you get a lot more midrange from more fuel and spark. Looks like a VERY good curve!!!:banana:
They liked my paint job more than hp they see 400hp bests in there everyday. They got 500hp Firebird Trans Am
parked in the garage.
the engine got about 3800 miles now
I got msds y-pipe with stock cat, soon I will get the new re desined trubendz y-pipe with removable cat. Im runing19lbs injectors

Also im planing to put lower temperature thermostat and GMK Intake to get fresh air during those hot summer months.
Also Like Rick said the chip was burned just for air/fuel ratio now that the engine got some miles we can play with timing. Another Dyno coming in the spring.
