The real question is how much you should have gained, in percentage of the stock power. A dyno is not an absolute figure tool, it's a comparison tool.

Take it to a dyno place and get them to give it a power run then you will know exactly how many kW's you have

I'd say 300rwkw+.

I got 302.9 rwkw. I had problems with the car and had a weak fuel pump, was told would get more with the new pump as it was running out of fuel
With the new pump I onky ended up with an extra 1.8 rwkw

It wS previously tuned by Russo performance and had 342 rwkw, so I'm guessing dynos are different and give different readings.

Car sounded different with the tune from russos,

Sounds like they milked money out of you if it was a performance pump, stock pump should handle the power fine.

342rwkw is too high for just a cam unless it's a really big one with ported heads.

So can these dyno guys just put a figure on paper or are all dynos different?. I was told with what I have from this tuner that I would get a NO BULLSHIT 320-330 rwkw. But I only got the 302
