1st Dyno... *tears*
I have an 05 enthusiast 6spd. Mods are Motordyne 5/16 copper isothermal spacer, JWT popcharger and invidia N1 catback exhaust. Do these numbers sound right? I have seen stock numbers higher than that. All pulls were done on third gear. And it was on a dyno jet. I am kind of dissapointed with the numbers
, I was wondering if anyone could help.Sorry if the dyno sheet is too small, but
MAX Power =236.92
MAX Torque= 222.01

Answer me these questions and I'll tell you if you should cry:
1. Did you get a "before" dyno?
2. Have you seen stock numbers higher than that from the same dyno you used?
3. Do you know if that air/fuel ratio is accurate? If it is, you have a lot of untapped power to be gained by tuning. You are generally running leaner than you should to make optimal power.
Comparing numbers from one dyno to another is like two virgins comparing sexual positions. It's pointless, bullsh1t, inaccurate, and they are only comparing based on stuff they've seen or read.
If you answered "no" to either question 1 or 2, then you have nothing to cry about. Different dynos have different calibration and correction factors. So if one dyno says 230whp another one can easily read 260whp.

too bad u dont have vtech....
but don't be fazed man, dynos aren't meant for just looking at the numbers, they should be used as comparison, so baselines are super important.

On an inertia dyno, it would have been best to use 5th gear, or 4th at the least. Probably a few whp missing since you used 3rd. I wouldnt read too much into this one dyno session. Go back and make some pulls in 4th/5th gear and see what happens.

3rd gear dyno might have contributed a bit to low dyno#'s.
My dynojet baseline dyno numer was 240whp/232tq FYI.

very true. most cars put down the best numbers in 5th gear on a dynojet.
third is way too low of a gear.
