Default Dyno my 2003 Z with mods.

I dyno my Z using DYNOJET.. I did two runs and my best number is 246.42hp 242.38torque. SAE correct.
my A/F ratio was about 14 at 4500rpm and 13.5 at 5500rpm went down to 12.8 at 6000rpm. Is this safe?? am i running rich ??
My mods are Pop charger+test pipe+Greddy Evo2 exhaust. Im kind dissapoint at number.. I was expecting over 250hp.. cause stock Z dyno about 240hp. I will post dyno sheet later.

The ECU is programmed to get richer in the upper RPMs. Yours sounds normal. You can lean it up a bit by getting an ECU reflash.

If he gets it flashed, it will be stronger... he can use the current setup as a baseline now.

Dyno's are incredibly reliable measurements of performance.

Your A:F ratios seem "okay" to me although at WOT closer to 13 would be nice. The ECU is set for emissions remember, not power. Forget about the bobble at 2500 rpm, that's an anomaly of the DYNOJET dyno at the start of about every run.

But I don't place a lot of faith in the typical DYNOJET A:F sensor. Stuck in the tailpipe it can give poor readings. Far better to put it in a bung welded into the system closer to the exhaust ports....like an oxygen sensor port for instance. But the typical dyno jockey only wants to get it done quickly and knows that most customers only want horsepower "dyno bragging rights" anyway.
