Dyno is for tuning. Numbers mean nothing.
Run the car at a track check your MPH and see if it is making more power.


Now having said that. your running the stock hpipe? how many cats does that thing have? might try an OR pipe.
And if what I'm hearing is rigth 12.1 af on a NA motor, man that's a lil fat.
As far as MD tuning, well I'm not getting into that.

Nope, I have a magnaflow catted x, and yes, maybe it needs to be leaned out a little bit.

Ok I think I've cleared this up. Modular depot DIDN'T put adjustable aftermarket cam gears in, so the cams didn't get degreed with better gears. Probably because I didn't ask for it specifically, and they didn't suggest it. MPH just messaged me back and Rhonda said that she seriously doubts that they could find much more hp from my car. I also found out that it was rather humid that day and in the 80's. Also, the dyno might not have been running top notch. I've come to the conclusion that I'm probably putting down a little more power than the dyno shows, but without adjustable gears, I doubt I'll make 270 rwhp.
