We are going to have an open ended filter for the dyno... We will do both...

Added to the list is the 4.0 Frontier.. So we are going to dyno the Titan, Frontier, 350Z

 

Turn of events...

The stock 350Z we were going to use is no longer...

Does any one have a stock 350Z who would like to get a free baseline dyno on Thursday between 9-1pm?

If so please PM me...

 

somebody get over there and get this thing settled

 

damn you gotta be kidding you cant grab a tradein

 

find one!

 

SO, don't tell me, this just stalled out today? A 350z couldn't be found?

 

no it didnt..

we got a car..

 

Jason,

I am personally interested in the fitment of the airbox/shield. I had issues rubbing against an AC line on one corner and the back edge of the box being too high and causing the hood to bulge a bit on the intake side.

Please review the fitment as vigorously as the performance piece.

thanks

 

also are you going to do the milage on the car b4 dynoing to give it a fair test

 

yes... ill be takin it for a spin around the block

 

huh?

 

alright then, let's git er done!
I say screw the lap time, reset the ecu, then baseline
reset the ecu , then test intake.

+1

Yea!

I am glad to see people requiring a pre/post ECU reset as part of a dyno test control!!! Whoo Hooo! Its really needed!

Taking the car off the dyno is less than optimum, but if its really required, be careful to roll it in and strap it down the same as it was before.

Watch that fan position/settings too!


EDIT:
Engine coolant temperatures too! Very critical!

 

then once you do the dyno w/ intake drive around the block some and come back...

 

Is anyone planing on going to the dyno?

 

I can't make it tomorrow. I would love to show you and Andy some cool new stuff but Thursday doesn't work unfortunately.

 

Lets see an end to this thing once and for all, >

 

This has become the Seinfeld of threads. 24 pages bascially about nothing!

 

Yes i agree, and keep it on the dyno while reseting the ECU.

I would suggest the following:
1. Drive car onto the dyno, secure it etc
2. Reset the ECU
3. Do 3+ runs baseline
4. Fit the AFE
5. Reset ECU
6. Do 3+ runs with filter
7. Drive the car as long and hard as possible within the least possible time
8. Do 3+ runs a final time (this wont be as comparative as the first 2 runs but would give an indication if the run-in results in gains)

I think with that stategy the results would be as "correct" as they can get
