^^ to the wheels i'm taking about...not flywheel

baseline should be around 275-285

That is what I thought.

Thanks.

So what is everyone's thought on the Dyno chart?? Fabricating?

Well if it is a hub attached dynomometer then the numbers are you inflated 20+ horse power due to it not losing anything from the weight of the wheels/tires and the friction of the road surface.

Ahh.. That makes sense. Even with that, the gains they show are still REALLY impressive....

Didn't even think about this.

The chart says it's a mustang dyno. That complicates things further as they are the lowest reading dyno's.


What you're thinking of is a dynopack dyno.


Same for me, if I get the 370 then the Evo has to go. Oddly enough we have the same payments.

450/mo??? How much are you putting down and planning to spend on the car?

For my Evo is was around $32k and then $5k down, making my payment $455. That's for 72 months. However if I keep the car it will be paid off before that.

OH! 72 months! For a second I thought you had like NO interest at all.

My Trans Am was 22K when I bought it and my payments were 400/mo. But it was for 48 months.

If you are talking about 280hp roughly baseline, then 350hp IMO is not sooo crazy. Normally, on higher performance motors, improving the breathability makes a large impact. Headers, exhaust and intake could potentially be good for 30-40 hp. And cobb can do some pretty serious things with their tunes. OK, maybe 350 is on the HIGH end but I would think 330-340 is a pretty good estimate.

Only thing is, historically with the 350Z everything already flowed really good, so there weren't big gains at all with the typical n/a bolt-ons (intake, exhaust, etc). That's why for a lot of people some of the big numbers coming from the VQ37 seem very far-fetched.
