Went on the Dyno today, basic 5.7L
I ended up flattening out on peak power for a couple of hundred rpm.
Looking at a log I think I've determined my air filter is far too small since I am pulling a vacuum as the revs rise [watch the MAP].
Since then I have bought what K&N sells for their Hemi CAIs and will run that filter....it's about 80% more surface area. I expect a few more horsepower up top, perhaps at a little higher rpm as well.
I bought the filter I had before just to get the car out on the road, I didn't think it would choke out the engine that much. From what I've seen it's almost amazing it made as much power as it did on the dyno...its FAR too small.
