Disappointing Radix install on a 5.3L
#41
I really hope something simple has been overlooked. I had my mind set on the radix kit, but with the money that thing costs I could build up a pretty stout 6.0. It would be much easier to install the radix though.

1000 radix owners and one problem......
I am sure there is some problem with the installation or a simple fix that they did not pick up on.
Trust me, you will be happy with the Radix.......

Still have yet to see any dyno sheets other than my own. I wonder if they exist?

I am curious who else might also be underperforming but unaware....
Why don't you post your dyno sheets, Brian, so everyone can see them?

Some people aren't happy unless they have something to bitch about. You don't owe him jack squat, let him deal with his own nightmares! That is probrobally why he is coming up short on power, because he is wuss! You are practically begging him to do him a favor. Put him on IG, like I have, and let him ROT with his 300rwhp. I hope he gets busted by a HEMI.

I am trying to contribute to the knowledge base of this group while at the same time asking for the experience of its members. And if the request for hard data is uncomfortable, well, I must apologize, but experience has shown me that hard data often refutes assumptions made in its absence; hence, my reliance upon it. The 'seat-of-the-pants' dyno on my vehicle would have felt great (oh, about 360 RWHP I would have said....or 'hoped' actually) - the install shop even said when I was leaving to go dyno it the second time that it should be about 120 RWHP - but isn't it interesting that the real dyno shows only 300 RWHP???
Now I appreciate your offer of a look at my install, and may very well take you up on it next week, but you want me to detail why I cannot drive three hours one way through holiday traffic to your place today? Okay, well, driving up there is a minimum six hour excursion, and that is only if there is no traffic and I just arrive and then immediately turn around and go home. With you examining my vehicle, I am probably looking at 8 hours total, at minimum. I'm sorry, but I have prior commitments this afternoon and simply can't swing it. Is that an acceptable answer?

and i cant post the Dyno sheets right now because I am at work and they are at home. I will do so when I arrive there.
Other mods at the time of the dyno run were:
Shorty Headers 3-4 ho
Flowmaster exhaust (junk imo) 10-12 hp at best.
so subtract the 4 and the 12 from the 375.
I am not going to get into a long posting contest with you, I just dont have the time. I have offered our help and that offer still stands. Call me when you are ready to come out.
