Default Still no Borla dual dyno ????

Where is the dyno on the Borla dual? Two weeks later and no one has done a dyno run ????? Sorry if someone did post already with the forum in it's current state I may have missed it.

There was one DYNO posted for a few hours with very disappointing results

I can't because that it has been removed by the problem that this forum has been having lately it just disappeared.

Well mine is on its way anyway got the last from 21st-century exhaust I would have liked to have seen some positive printouts first but I am anxious to wait

BROLA seems to be a very reputable manufacturer I would hope their new exhaust lives up to their claims.

Great. I swear that guy has mods he's not telling us about . Can't wait to see his results.

I found it here!! I suspect there are certain "factors" which contribute to his particularly poor dyno results.

Ambient temperature, heavier than stock 19" wheels and tires and somthing else that i don't remember anymore, eh maybe it was just the dyno in particular.

243.2 is a solid gain, assuming that TX's baseline would be about 230 (+/- 3 hp). In 90 degree weather no less. I wondering what kind of Dyno it was and what TX's true baseline is.

Guys don't jump to conclusions. He did not have a chance to do a dyno before any aftermarket so just looking at his final numbers with the Borla is not really reflective. The only true measure that I would feel comfortable with is seeing a before and after type situation. He dyno'd at a place that uses a DynoJet Dynamometer. We had a Z club of Texas dyno day there a while back and we saw dyno's from 220 to 247 from 350z's with little to no mod's so take that for what it's worth. Oh and wheel size in my opinion really doesn't make that much difference on a dyno...I know it's unsprung weight, but come on it's like saying a grounding kit gives you 1.5hp. Each day will probably yield you diff results, its the nature of the beast. Plus with our weather here in Texas 243hp when its hot and humid is not bad at all.

I dyno'd before when it was cooler and plan to dyno again after some mods (hopefully) Borla exhaust soon.

FYI - not to throw folks off, but I dyno'd 244hp at the same place with no mods, does that mean anything, not really...diff car...diff weather.
