As some of you may know, I recently got my V2 replacement due to oil consumption from Riverside Infiniti a couple of months ago.

Mods:
MREV
5/16 spacer ISO,
Test Pipes
X02
K&N Drop in

Your asking what the point of the dyno is?

I went back and did a re-tune just to be safe the since the 2 motors were different and felt a little weak on the low-end. I also wanted to make sure the a/f tune was safe for the new motor. Can never be too careful. Turns out the A/F was a little rich so adjustments were made. Looks like my old motor with 55k was still making decent power compared to the new V2 with less than 3k miles.

Made some small gains up top. Lost some tq down low with the new V2. hopefully it gets cured with ART pipes. Looks like the V2 is just as good as the V1 up top.

I did discover 1 thing after I got home from the dyno. Silly me for not checking . My filter is DIRTY after only 5k miles from the last recharge. When I say dirty, black soot is CAKED on the far outer side of the filter. I took it out and gave it a little shake and black soot and dead bugs were everywhere. I'm using the OEM airbox and my car didn't come with the bottom resonator below the airbox. Not sure if it affected the dyno...

Possible future mods:
Flywheel/Clutch
Headers (I know it's a hit and miss when it come to headers, will choose wisely)
Motordyne ART pipes
Motordyne Exhaust
Vortech SC (Hopefully)

Big thanks to Church for only charging me a very small fee for the re-tune. Well worth the drive.

Charts:

V1 Baseline vs Tuned V2 (overall gains)


Add: When driving home, I noticed my rev limiter doesn't kick in in 3rd gear.

chruch's dynoqueen dyno strikes again! good thing you got a before and after which is the most important thing.

 

Yep. The before and afters is all I care about. I don't care if the dyno says 5whp or 500whp. Just there for the before and afters and excellent service.

Plus, their tune prices are VERY competitive and meticulous. Re-tunes only go for around $100.

 

What's his name on gdriver did a head to head......church vs dynojet and the Church read 12% higher.......new motor seems strong though.

 

I was thinking more along the lines of 20%.

Looks like I would be around 260 on a DJ.

 

I don't know if that user was using SAE or STD correction though......260 is probably about right SAE.

 

Those are really really good numbers on a completely stock block. Your old and new engine.

edit: Never you have some stuff done to your car, but it still gives out pretty good number compared to others that have been at Church.
