I just got my car dynoed, 209hp & 235tq.
We ran into the factory speed limiter at around 200km/h or 124mph
We did the rest of the pulls in 2nd gear.
The car sounds awesome from the outside.

It was on a Dynojet 248C, car was warm from an hour's drive and air temp is cool around 62.

Sorry...but that sounds reallllly low.

302 hp to the crank from the factory.

Thats almost a 33% power loss.

Power loss on a stock auto transmission should be about 20%....at most.


Wierd.



PS: Man....I'm really starting to like the blue color.... :)

Anyone else have thoughts on the numbers?

Ok...I took a bit of a closer look at the graph.

Your numbers on the graph seem a bit higher than 209 for rwhp....


Anybody have thoughts?

It does seem low, but it might just be the dyno.

The numbers are low, but they are just that, numbers; how does the car feel when you hit the throttle ? If you want to know how your car stacks up, go to the track.

The average MM. does 15.2-15.3 in the 1/4.

Temp and Humidty affect the 1/4 by +/- .75.

If the graphs shown were in 2nd gear that could explain the low numbers. I tried to do pulls in lower gears before and got bad results. Best way is 3rd gear, od off. And yes, the speed limiter kicks in before rev limiter, but it's still above the hp and tq peaks. Most of us got around 240 hp stock.
