I got my car back today from Z car garage in san jose. They did what I thought was a simple dc header, berk cats, 600cc dw, walbro, 2.87 pulley, and uprev tune. I had a nismo exhaust and a vortech kit. I was hoping to get maybe 380-390whp at best(All i have is 91 to work with). Well to my surprise the car baselines at 377whp! I start thinking "maybe I have bit off more than I can chew." A week later I pick up the car(today). I find out the car made 433whp, tuned down from 447whp because he didnt think it was safe for what I had.
So my question is, what the hell is going on here? I bought my car from a used car lot who didnt really know to much about the car. I got it for a great price, kinda took a gamble but knew the owner was a wealthy man named dallas raines who does the weather in LA. I figured he had the coin to treat the car well. If anyone knows him maybe they could ask him what is on my car? From what I can tell he also owned a 03Z with similar mods as in my sig.
Does anyone have any speculations as to what else could possibly be on my car? Im thinking possibly cams? Its not a Ttrim. I think its just to much extra hp for it to be a freak.
yes the dyno is SAE corrected

I havent got a good look yet at my boost. I will post when I find out. I would agree, however the 2.87 on a revup is the equivalent of a 3.12 on a non revup.
