Get both on the same car and you had a "freak". Machining on the new stuff is so precise, these cars don't vary a whole hell of a lot from one to the next. Talkings thousandths here. Not nearly enough to account for giant leaps in horsepower.

All I can tell you is that we would have Dyno Day and I would see from 235 to 265 RWHP on STOCK LT1's, comparing M6 to M6 and A4 to A4 Not an auto to a standard. On LS1's we would see from 285 to 315 RWHP. again stock, comparable mileage...Thats just my findings/results so take it from there..Dyno variances? possibly, but that much of a difference? I dont think so. Also I have had a couple of the high horsepower cars at a different dyno, different town and they still made the same figures...
