4th gear is 1:1
Typically, when comparing a 3rd gear pull to a 4th gear pull.. 4th reads higher (I dont know logic behind this, however I have some theories I just came up with)

Issue you may want to consider (Why some use 3rd)

  • 4th gear takes a long time to wind out, so if you are doing multiple runs, heat could be a bigger problem
  • If you have a speed limiter, it will kick in. Redline in 4th will be approx 180MPH
  • Some dyno operators don't like taking dyno to 180+


Overall, people use both. Good luck, and post up your chart

Take your car to Sac. Raceway which I believe is local to you and see what kind of power it "really" puts down!

yes, but the I/C pump was dying - IATs were 170-180, but still made 401 HP

I/C pump was working wonders today

446HP / 487 TQ

first two runs were IAT ~110-115; in 3rd gear
3rd run was in 4th gear, IAT at 122 - ran the dyno up to 202MPH!



so - corrected for 18% loss - that's 544HP and 594 ft-lbs!?!

That's with the smaller SC pulley? Those look like ECU tune only numbers.

That's why I was asking. Stock 55k on dynojets that I've seen range from 410-420hp stock with around 450tq. Tunes with no pulley resulted in 440-450hp and 475-485 tq.

And Dyno numbers mean squat... BUT, if the AFR chart is available, it will give you an indication as to where the tune is.

Is this the smaller upper, or lower pulley?

Pulls look good, and you should be happy!

one car at a time
Todd - Are the IATs you listed the peak numbers or where they started ? The IATs seem low given ~87 degrees ambient temperature, unless they are the starting point. I'd be curious to see your IATs at the end of the pull.

Well now that you found a dyno, stick with it to ascertain mods/gains. Jumping dynos is hardly a good comparison down the road. Best of luck and looking forward to your monster gains.

yes that's with the S/C pulley + box tune

so considering 18% powertrain loss - your car made 524 at the crank from factory! (430RWHP / .82 = 524.39HP) that's pretty awesome

I logged using my Kiwi WiFi during the runs - there's a TON of data, so I need to run through that. This was at a local UTI school and there were SO many students hovering around the car that we forgot to log AFR on the DynoJet - so hopefully I have the data correct in my logging

this is just the smaller S/C pulley - I'm starting to think that I DO have belt slip as I drove it the night before in Dyno mode and had some interesting squealing going on under the hood...

I'm happy, was shooting for 450 at the wheels - got really close - the last Dyno day, all I got only 401 (but different Dyno and IATs were **** that day) maybe changing the intake tubes for Pythons or the newer FT-P tubes would give a little more and if I tweak the exhaust more than stock it should hit no problem.

I watched/logged IATs during the runs - honestly it didn't jump into the 130's until after the 3rd Dyno - they had a nice wind tunnel setup with fresh air pumping into the small room and exhausting out the air out the back. I was very impressed with their setup!

They finally fixed their trap speed calibration, so the runs don't trap as high any more. Nonetheless still a blast!
