Should I be disapointed.I have 03 with JLT fender cold air 2 high flow cats with x and fordracing mufflers and 2.8 pulley.I have the diablo with the can pulley tune.Went to dyno thinking I could tune it with the diablo.Because it has the setting for rich and lean and timming adjust.Anyway first pull I only got 422.9rwhp and 465t.I found out their is not enough ajustment on the diablo to ajust the richness out.My cat went below 10 off the scale on richness.We even put just the performance tune in the car like it didn't have a pulley.We pulled it down it was richer than with the pulley.So I guess I have to get a custom tune.Does anyone know how much hpp charges.also what is the average rwhp on these cars with these modds.I was hopeing for close to 500 rwhp.Some give me some insite on this or yall's opinion.Thanks.:xpl:

Get a custom tune, dump the canned tune. I habe a RR 2.8, Catted X & Cat-back (Bassani) and Steeda intake and you see me sig. Custum tune from RWTD.

You're not going to get near 500whp with those mods...

More then likely around 460ish hp and 470-480tq...but dear god get rid of the cannned tune

See my sig for mods and numbers (Numbers were on a 98degree day with about 90% humidity)

Mine dyno'd 410 at the wheels with 2.8 and Predator canned tune. That was how i bought it. Got a custom SCT tune and put 463 to the wheels. That is right about where you should be. You won't get 500 without porting the blower from what i have read

I've got simliar mods, bigger pulley and dyno'd the numbers below. I agree with the other guys up top, get rid of the canned tune and get a reliable shop, with a good reputation for balancing safety with HP and you'll be way happier!!! Good luck and keep us posted!!!:beer:
