when are you gonna get to the dyno bro?MT1083 said:Glad to see it worked out for ya Dan!
Cool, thanks bro. My last run that day after the car was hot was around 385hp. I should be getting a #10 pulley today whenever the slow ass FEDEX guy gets here, So I guess its back to the dyno again!!!!B C said:Great Dan, I have seen numbers that indicate the Slowmasters robbed power and this looks to prove it again.
FWIW you are putting numbers very close to my stock 2001 KB with a Magnaflow catback. I have dynoed a few times. Different dynos, different days. At KB my lowest numbers were 385 rwhp in August, my highest was at Brothers Performance in November at 400 rwhp and 410 rwtq.
yeah, it's crazy how that back pressure kills power!CTGrey02 said:I definately gained power putting magnaflows on. Funny thing is I only bought it for the sound.. I was only expecting a few HP out of it.. but I gained about 10-15 from it. Congrats on your new numbers and lean that mofo out a bit. You have power and a lot more torque to gain there.

where is your proof to back that statement up? I have 2 dyno sheets that say flow-thru design is better then chambered in a forced induction application. plus, i did feel the difference right off the bat with the pacs.kirkyg said:All this flowmasters vs straight-through supposedly being so much better is a load of crap. kirkyg
I did change my fuel filter. I change it almost everytime I change my oil. I don't really notice any difference after I change it. Are you getting part throttle pinging?rhyrlik said:Dan,
I just got my car back and have a few questions for you:
Did you change your fuel filter? Did you notice any part-throttle pinging before changing your fuel filter? Will changing your fuel filter eliminate slight part throttle pinging?

Thats fine. I went from 3 chamber flowmasters to Magnapacs and saw roughly a 13hp increase. So there was a difference on MY kenne bell powered car. Ken at KB even said himself that getting rid of the 3 chambers and going with a flow thru muffler would make a difference.kirkyg said:Tim proved your statements wrong. He used 2 chambered flows vs magnaflows i think it was and there was basically no power difference on a Kenne Bell'd car. Its all a wash...there is no end all muffler. It basically boils down to what you like and thats it. In CERTAIN applications like a turbo'd car that has adverse affects on backpressure responds much differently to different mufflers.

Not really necessary, but either is changing my oil every 2k miles. More of a piece of mind thing. Look at it this way, can't hurt the car right?kirkyg said:Is changing your fuel filter that often really necessary? Recommended changing interval is like 30k miles. Speaking of which i just turned 30k on my car so i probably should change it.

I'm aware how mufflers work lol. I was shrugging at an obvious statement that you made above.kirkyg said:Its very simple more chambers more restriction...
