Today I made my first visit to the dyno. I put down 240rwhp and 280rwtq on a Dynojet, which I was very pleased with, considering my car is an auto and I have very few power mods. It was a fun day, and the shop was great to work with. I got a printout with both the power/torque curves AND a chart with the datapoints used to make the graph. I can scan it and upload if anyone's interested.
Unfortunately, in the excitement of the event, I forgot to use a fan and didn't let my car cool down between runs; I just pulled onto the roller, let them strap it down, and made my 3 pulls. I don't know if it would have made a difference for me, but I know my friend's naturally-aspirated Dakota R/T gained 20rwhp today between runs by using the fan, letting his truck cool down between runs, pulling the air filter off, and running a short belt. His truck put down 250/330 initially, and 270/340 on his second run.
So, does Stangnet think I would have made more power if I had done those things? What if I add a 75mm Accufab tb/plenum and magnaflow catback, my next planned mods?
