Car just came back from the dyno and the numbers seemed a bit low
Stock LQ4
LS6 cam
M122
2.6" SC pulley
7.8 crank pulley
10 rib drive, no slip
Only 6# of boost? 405/430
If you've got a M122, any brand, what pulley do you have and how much boost did you get from your 6.0?

That does seem very low. I would think you should be above 10+ with a good set of ported heads, and good flowing exhaust. I wouldn't be surprised if you hit 13.
Are you sure the bypass valve is fully closing? What style supercharger do you have? If it has a shaft, maybe the gears on the back got switched around (not sure about this, just a thought).

Not a jackshaft setup

1.75" LTs into a 4" single exhaust, no restriction there
I was estimating 13-15psi for the build, so when the tuner said all he got was 6, I was surprised. Thanks for the confirm, Ill pressurize the system and hunt for leaks

Bypass valve works properly. Its located under the inlet. I can manually close it and idle will become a surge
Tuner said power was right in line with the boost level which I agree with, but the boost level for pulley and blower displacement seems extremely low
