Default Help Please lol

ok so as most of you know my car did worse on the dyno this year compared to the two previous years last year was 182/267...my best this year was 176/245. what i changed between the two was TB, muffler, and the chip. i dont have the chip in the car no and i did get a couple horse and torque back but still no where near where it was before. The TPS was set too low because i never checked when i put it on the new TB but we fixed that tonight. I guess i just want input on anything else i should check for?

I was hoping that all this stuff would get me to my goal of 200/280 but not yet i guess lol

Thanks in advance for any help!!

only thing i came up with was the tps voltage other then that only thing i can think of would be a vac leak but I don't think you had that problem. maybe check timing or fp see how that is doing. also check plugs see what they look like.

^hey if your payin i will..if not then can it lol

and i think im going to pull some timing out of it see it that helps, i kinda dont think its a fp problem but it is an easy check so i will look into that, same with the plugs..they have about 2k miles on them but i can pull a few out and check em out.

pizza was thinking i should check IAT and see if that is reading correctly

jay switched from a edlebrock muffler to a magnaflow and lost like 5 hp, might have lost a bit there when you switch to a hooker?

sorry adam but i gained 10rwhp over a Blowmaster wen i went to the hooker. not his issue. if all of his sensors are withing range. its either A bad tune. B past he efficiency of the MAF. or C he needs a cam cuz there isnt any free HP left in thet head cam combo. thats my 2 cents.
