What was your baseline? You really need to look at the change before and after mods, not just the peak number.

What do you mean it didn't take? What does a stock 370 put down on that dyno? You might be on a low reading dyno.

That number means nothing without a baseline or at least knowing what a stock 370 puts down on that dyno. If a stock 370 puts down 270 on that dyno, your number is low. If it puts down 245, then your gain is in line with others with the same mods.

Ask the place you got dynoed. What kind of dyno was it? They're not all the same.

So I had a tune done a while back when I installed my HFCs and CBE. I recently installed the Stillen gen 3 CAI and am planning to install the m370 intake manifold. Will the combinaiton of those 2 new bolt-ons cause any problems like running too lean without a re-tune? I'm trying to figure out if I should install the m370 this week or wait until next week when my tuner is available to do the re-tune. I don't want to run into any issues with it being too lean during the cruise this weekend.

You will run leaner with the manifold but not to the point where it will be serious. You will be ok until your next tune.
