If any of you guys are were ever contemplating hitting the dyno to see how much power your z is putting down, stop thinking and just do it. Head over to APH and talk to Edward, he will get you hooked up and spinning in no time.:icon38:
I feel 100x better knowing that the mods I purchased actually made power and were not a waste of money.
Thanks again guys. I asked a lot and none of you threw tools at me… :icon39:

Also a big :thumbup: must go out to Hydrazine (Tony@Motordyne). A great guy and very knowledgeable individual, who is always willing to lend helping hand. He also happens to make some of the best bang for the $$ mods available for our rides.
Thanks Tony.


The reason:
I don’t believe in ricer math.:icon17:.. and having previously installed these mods on my 35th anny, with regrettably only a post dyno, I figured that given a second shot, I would dyno each mod separately to see exactly what gains were made with the addition of basic bolt-ons.
All tests were completed on the same day (within a few hours), same dynopack.

The zed:
2006 GT PPW
-Stock with the exception of a y-pipe back Blitz exhaust. 2.75”

The parts:
Motordyne 5/16th Copper Iso Thermal spacer
Motordyne Mrev2
Motordyne XYZ y-pipe (with straight pipe)

Baseline Dyno
– This run shows 219whp/ 219ft/lbs

Motordyne XYZ pipe
– This run shows a solid increase in both Torque and HP. Torque is a soild 10ft/lbs across the powerband, starting at around 3800 rpm al the way to redline. HP shows an increase of 10whp starting at around 4200 rpm, with a big jump starting at 5250 rpm with great gains all the way to redline.

Motordyne Mrev2 & 5/16th Iso Copper Thermal spacer (compared to xyz pipe)
- This run proves that the combination of Motordyne’s Mrev2 and 5/16th spacer makes power. This shows 20+whp and 20+ft/lbs. Proves to me that this is hands down, the best bang for the buck rev-up engine mod.

My best run of the day saw 240whp/ 238 ft/lbs, I was more then satisfied with the outcome. Car definitely pulls harder in all gears and the audible change was a welcome addition.:)

I hope this post helps revup owners who are looking into similar mods. This thread, along with many others should prove that you can't go wrong with Motordyne bolt-ons. They make power.

This is the way to do it! Good job and congrats on the gains. Are you planning on getting headers? I'd love to see a thread like this showing the gains for headers.

Hi,
If you have a non revup DE motor, it may not benefit you as much as it would if you had a revup motor.
