430 thats pretty good yea the vararam doesn't add any power on the dyno so it might be more when I am driving but thats hard to simulate on the dyno

I was 422 both hp and tq with headers and tune with a 160* stat. Was 400 for both again with just a tune. 08 C6.

Dyno runs read different.

The OP's numbers seem a little low but again it can be the nature of the test.

What were the before numbers? Or were the parts installed and then brought to Cartek for tune/dyno?

Yesterday was almost 90% humidity in NJ. The air was just bad. Maybe thats why your numbers are weak.

Manual or automatic? Don't worry about the numbers. You have a basic set up and Cartek is a great shop/tuner so I'm sure you're where you need to be. Isn't their slogan Not Just Dyno Hype or something like that? They have some fast cars at the track.

Dyno numbers are a tuning tool. I was never interested having a car that was a "Dyno Queen" but more of a performer.

I would not be too concerned with the dyno numbers. I had low numbers in comparison to other similar modded cars too................. and the car ran low 11's thank you Julio

That does seem low, but dynos are tools really. Before and after numbers would have been more helpful to you. You're making tune only numbers right now.
