Well today I went up to Dynopro in Denver and met Judah (Oh I hope I spelled his name right) and got the Car Dyno'ed. Judah is a friend of the person I might sell the car too (assuming he wants it, and I take the plunge 100% and sell it) so he came to check it out. He seems like a really nice guy, and it was fun with his kid in the backseat screaming "GO FAST AGAIN DAD". Hehe

Anyway, I was expecting about 390rwhp or so, and 360'ish torque, so these results blew my mind.

That chart look good/normal to you guys?

We let the car cool down for about 15 minutes before running it, and the dyno operator had both of us push down on the rear of the car to help keep traction since my tires were very dusty and dirty. Would this mess up the results?

Regardless, 415rwhp and 370rqtq is amazing for my mods, I don't even have a CAI and my midpipe has cats! The second pull went down to about 400 because of the heat, but that's still above my estimate . So overall I am happy.

BTW, This is with the stall reflash tune and I don't see the "dropoff" that some people mention above 6000 rpm, in fact it looks pretty damn good to me.

You can see my mods in my sig.

Oh yeah, the A/F chart I left at the dyno shop (oops), but I remember it being around 12-12.5 from like 4000rpm up, is that safe? I wish I had it, but I forgot.

Anyhow, here are some cool pics I took after a car wash, and pics at the dyno. I think the first pic is my new favorite pic of my car, looks really slick in it.

From what I've seen and read the HP is a bit higher than I would have expected, but only by 10-15 or so. The torque number looks low. I would have expected it to also be right at 400 or so, based on other dyno curves I've seen with the mods you listed.

Still no slouch, though.... :D

Edit:

OK, just looked at your mods again and saw that you still have the stock airbox. The 400/400 curves I've seen have been with one or the other of the typical CAI's, most typically the FIPK.

Ain't it fun? :spot:
 
Yeah, people with CAI vs stock airbox seem to have more torque.

I think I picked up some ponies from the MRT-H which gave me the higher then usual. Either that or the dyno was high, or I just have a strong car.

I wasn't expecting more then 370rwtq with my mods so thats fine by me. Torque always seems to be lower in non tuned cars from what I've seen, I could be wrong tho.
