How did I dyno this high? (not that I am complaining)
 
I was at performance motorsports this weekend (great trip btw) and my original base was low 330's and after tune I was low 340s (can't remember if it was 342 or 343 but had a 10hp gain).

I have just the mods below...

Now listen I am not complaining but how is this possible? I have the sheet I can scan and upload once I hook up my scanner.

This was on a mustang dyno btw.

That's like easily 35 hp more than what you would usually see... that is a big vartiation in my favor (again not that I am complaining).

I think it was an AWD dyno does that mean anything?

Could just be the type of dyno.
I just got dyno tuned last weekend on a 2wd dyno dynamics machine and I'm at 318.
But I was told that would be about 350(?) on a dynojet.
And of course, we all know that varies by temperature, humidity, etc.
So don't worry about it; just enjoy it. :driving:

Enron dyno.

Their dyno reads high. It's just a number anyways. Trap speed proves real horsepower.

MattP725 08-21-2011 08:45 PM

Yeah I know it is all relative because each dyno is dif, I was just shocked that it was that high.

Eventually we will get to the track and do some runs.

PM dyno reads a bit high, I put down like 342 there last week, most people with bolt-ons/tune do the same.

I thought its just the NY/NJ air adds 30 horsepower, no ?

Inaccurate dyno. But that's my opinion. And opinions are like a$$holes. Everyone has one. My personal belief is that the dyno you got those numbers from has some real "issues" with "real-world" factors. Wheel weights, temperatures, altitude, and I could go on.

Let me say that IMHO, your numbers are very inflated. And There are endless arguments about these number "issues". In fact the only arguments that garner more responses (and emotions) are the oil threads.

So take your results for what they are. And try and grow some thick skin. You'll need it.

(That's why I never post my numbers or charts on this or any other forum. They cause too many arguments.)

what exactly is funny about that factual statement regarding trap speeds and power?

Well, do you think that if I were to travel down a very long hill and reach a very high top speed; that I would deduce that my car has more "power" than someone who runs a short run on a measuring device? Like a dyno? Trap speeds are measurements like dyno runs. But trap speeds can be very deceptive.... as the example above proves.
