Took her to the dyno today

Red370 · 10-02-2009, 06:45 PM

well ladies and gents, decided to pop her cherry and get her up on the dyno for a few pulls. I was expecting somewhereabouts 270whp and about 235 ft/lbs, and strangely enough, thats right about how much I put down. I decided to do a good before and after dyno with every mod I add, Berk HFC's are pending purchase as we speak, and as soon as I get them I intend to dyno asap. Weird thing happened though, seems I made more power the hotter the engine became, strange. Also, seems as though he didnt take it to 7500rpms, probably could have made more power.

heres a pic of my sheet. Keep in mind, elevation is 4000 ft. ASL, was averaging about 90 degrees with a humidity of about 5%.

Not bad, 268whp and 240 ft./lbs at 4k ft.

Oh, heres a pic of me at the drags last sunday... guess the other car...

I'd rather not discuss that, lol, the track was poorly prepared really, and with the elevation, it just feels like the car is gasping for air. If you must know, a 14 even, for comparison, a GT500 ran a 13.6, which was his best of 4 runs. Dude showed me a slip from florida and ran a 12.3, so I know it wasnt just me.

i 2nd that..i too live in El Paso and have the same experiences. we will never have a decent track

Red370 · 10-02-2009, 07:23 PM

it definitely has an incline, i was rolling backward when I pulled up to the line. It gets real dusty here so its hard to grip also. I basically spun completely through 1st. Crazy part is, I beat a stock STI and a 08' Mustang GT by almost a half second each.

kgreen · 10-02-2009, 07:29 PM

u should def kill GT's all day but surprised the STI wasnt closer. u went to the ones by the dump right?

Red370 · 10-02-2009, 07:45 PM

in clint, yeah.

kgreen · 10-02-2009, 08:06 PM
