I will be going with the Accufab when I decide to get the new Plenum and Throttle Body.
Thanks for the effort and detail in the testing.

ok so maybe it's not a graphing thing?1990StangLX said:

i dunno
it looks very odd
only matt knows if they didn't floor it or changed the graphs in any way. but i think we just gotta deal with the fact that our plenum doesn't make as much power as the accufab model.JonJon said:ok so maybe it's not a graphing thing?

I find it most interesting that the baseline increased 9 rwhp between tests with no mods in between. Maybe the computer was adapting to the plenum + 70mm TB???
Anyhow, great test. Looking back, it would have been nice to do one set with a 70mm TB to relate the new results to the prior test results. (I am by no way complaining!!!!) Then it would have been easier to answer Cottonburners question.

it's lower than the stock TB too if you look at the C&L pic... ???1990StangLX said:only matt knows if they didn't floor it or changed the graphs in any way. but i think we just gotta deal with the fact that our plenum doesn't make as much power as the accufab model.

No, the graphs were not changed. I had Speedworks put them on disk, and I e-mailed them directly to Ken. He77, I have a hard enough time running the dynojet winviewer to edit the graphs.
Oh and they floored it each time. I was cringing with that fear of something breaking on each run.......
This is an honest test. I could not have done it more fairly.

Forget about the Plenum hype. It's not worth the bucks spent for a few HP. Take your money and install a Nitrous system and forget about it.

I don't have a paypal account, but if someone wants to send me any Kenne Bell SC parts, or Kenny Brown suspension upgrades, please do so!

Thanks for the info and time. But I have some questions and concerns
is a plenum/throttle body combo costing $375 + and only neting 5hp worth the money? To me $375+ is not worth 5 hp. Was the dyno ran with the 75mm throttle body in place for the baseline and the plenum added later OR was it stock for basline and the plenum/tb added for the dyno runs? Cause I am wanting to get one of these but for the gain of so little I think I will spend the cash else ware and buy them later when I max out my bolt on's.
