Dynoed my car today

[GNflyby]

Hi, just wanted to let you guys know that I just finished dynoing my car today, for the first time. This is what I got: HP = 278.4 Torque = 400.4 MPH = 92.87 Done at PRUVEN PERFORMANCE in Milford Connecticut.
What do you guys think... Is that good or bad?

Need to tell us your combo.
If its a Stage II motor that is not too good
But not bad for a bolt on motor
Remeber that reading is at the rear wheels

The car is preatty much stock, It has: Stock motor and trans,
2.5" hooker exh, 93 chip, 30lb injectors, Hi Po Fuel regulator,
Hi Po Fuel pump and K&N Filter w/cone. That`s about it.

 

[blackbuick87]

What kind of fuel and how much boost were you running? Did you get any knock?
I think that sounds very good for a near stock motor

Very good for the limited mods you have.

To get approx ENGINE/Flywheel HP & Torque, divide your # by .8

I.E. 278 * .8 = 347 HP
400 * .8= 500 Torque

IT was running with regular unleaded fuel and 16lbs of boost.

Where is the Big fan that should be blowing on the front of the car -----Numbers could have been a few higher
What was the OAT

Those are great numbers with basically a stock setup and pump gas. Did you see how hot your car got after a few runs! Mine NEVER goes above 200 on the street here in AZ but after one rip on the dyno (no fan either) I glanced at my temp gauge and she was sitting around 220 . I told the dude to shut it down and get a D@MN fan! You would think those guys would know that, maybe they were just jealous and didn't want the ol' 6 banger Buick to embarass everyone.

this pic MVC-026F shows a large fan in front of the car, go back to the link and you can see it.

 

[GNflyby]

I would not do it without the fan, If you look good there is a fan.

 

[gnx7]

those are good numbers for stock.

Looks like the tuners you went to also race an AWD Mitsubishi Eclipse .

They are mostly into the rocket pockets, They rarely see GN`s.
I`m pretty happy with the numbers.

GNflyby, Great numbers, I had mine dynoed also and I to was very pleased with the results ( see sig. for numbers) I kept telling the guy how suprised I was with them and he told I was one of only a few that was happy, I guess I was a little more realistic with my expectations than most that went there. Be proud

 

[GNflyby]

You have some pretty good numbers yourself Larry.
