Got the car on the dyno today at LMR and damn did they do a good job. I never got a baseline pull on their dyno so I don't know what it would have made here before the header install. The car has the basic gen 3 boltons and 3.73 gears. I was hoping out the door with the gears in the car that it would make 480rwhp SAE or higher.

First pull after the 68 mile drive and no tune was the ****, **** only made 460rwhp and 467ftlbs. Four and a half hours and 28 pulls later i gained 24rwhp and 37ftlbs and a great improvement across the entire band. SAE numbers were 482rwhp and 504ftlbs, STD numbers were a little higher at 493rwhp and 516ftlbs.

Here's a quick they shot for the shop website of a third gear pull. ***** is loud.

Nice numbers Andy. One of the workers at the shop must have also gotten a video of one of the pulls because this other video showed up a few hours before your post:

I do regular searches of "Dodge Viper" on youtube to see if anything new and cool comes up. I knew immediately that it was your car on the dyno (especially with the CF 360 forged wheels and the paint scheme). I still think those are decent numbers, even if you might be a little dissappointed.

Very nice Andy. Definitely shows that tuning after a significant bolt-on makes a big difference.

Good find :). He was quick getting that posted. I appreciate the compliments M&M and LMR really woke up the car.

Glad you got it all sorted out. I am sure that those 3.73 gears and dyno numbers will make for a healthy 1/4 mile run. I reckon you will get kicked out for running without a roll bar.

Andy, number are good but I kind of expected a little better with a tune and all, have you ever checked to see if your 03 was one of the bad valve 03's? your car should be making almost 440 RWHP bone stock, headers and high flow cats and exhaust should do a bit better for you

LMR said it was right in line with the ones they've dyno'd.

I just noticed you have 3.73 gears, that's the 10 HP difference right there, with 3.08 you would have had torque peak at a diff rpm and more hp
