Dyno and tune on Monday. I'll post numbers after that.

Car is running good so far. Sometimes rich at partial throttle. That should be fixed after tune.

Finally got her tuned. She pushed out 289 whp on a dynapak.

These usually read 6-9% lower than Dyno jets. So I've read.... Correct me if I am wrong.

I'll post the run sheet once I get home from work.

Now to clean her up, set the coilovers and enjoy the summer.

Congrats on the numbers, those are pretty healthy.

Dynapacks can read lower or higher than Dynojets, usually on lower power cars they read higher and higher power cars they read lower.

bump.

Is there a write up for the 5.7 swap anywhere? I keep finding bits and pieces, but no unified swap. Darren has a 5.7 Swap Facebook group but still no official write-up available even though he is selling the kits.

Update!!

It has been a year since I finished the swap...

The car runs perfectly. No oil burning and smooth power all the way through.

I have it running on stock ECU with 3" intake plus 370z injectors and Haltech with 4" intake and gtr injectors. Stock during winter and Haltech in the summer.

I am now looking to add a turbo. Need some stock manifolds. If anyone has those I am interested. Please let me know.
