So today im at work, and im talking to one of my co-workers. he is always ******* cobalts and underestimating them a ton. of course he is a mustang gt owner, so evidently he is the baddest mo fo in the state...RIGHT!!! well anyways. so a friend of mine just bought a used 06 civic si coupe for like 16,000. its in great shape, but with 197hp and 160 something torque i believe, wouldnt stand a chance against my balt. so then he starts commenting on my balt again, saying that i have just as much horsepower as that si, saying itd be a very close race. i then remind him that he spent $5100 on rebuilding the motor, stage 2 cams, ported and polished heads and intake, custom dyno tune and full exhaust and made 275whp on his 03 mustang gt...well then he says my car wouldnt make near that amount of power if i even make low 200whp. so he told me, that he would take me to a dyno, pay to have my car dynoed, and if i get 210whp or more, that he would give me a $100....but if i dyno at 209whp or lower, i owe him $100, but he would steal cover the dyno costs.....so i shook on this and got his word on everything. so did i pretty much just get a free dyno run and $100??? HAHAHAHA what yall think ill dyno at? i think its a mustang dyno where we are going.......

 

257hp 238tq if i'm right i get the 100 lol

 

NICE!! haha, yea ive never been dynoed so im curious of what ill make. all im worried about is its like in the low 90s here temperature wise and the humidity sucks in south texas!!! what mods do you have?

 

man, its a good day to be you

 

man who cares what your numbers are, well for this atleast, cuase theres no doubt you're gonna get the $$$

 

You better get a tune in before then to seal the deal. He might go to a low rating Mustang dyno, and you could loose out on this deal. Just some food for thought.

 

yea i was thinking about that, cuz its always like 95 degrees out...guess its time to turn up the methanol!!!! haha

yea, but just to shut him up. people mouth waaaay to much and i like to put stuff in their face to prove them wrong and make them stfu

yea i dyno'd 242 224hp with a 2.8 with 42's i was knockin bad...pacesetters header and aem intake..

 

plus a lil extra spending money sounded great..haha

hey you guys think i should up my pulley size to like a 2.95 or so?? cause i know there was someone on here that actually dynoed more hp from a 2.8 to the stage 2 pulley cause of heat, but i believe he wasnt running any cooling mods which i am.

 

I think you need to get in those 60's and a good tune in addition to your current setup. Increasing the meth will only lower your A/F ratios decreasing power if you are not properly tuned for it.

Just to give you an idea of how low Mustang dynos can be, I laid down 238whp and 230wtrq with current setup minus the methanol injection! However, my car is a lot faster than the 238whp that it laid down.

 

wow. haha. well i have a guy thats supost to be buying my 42s..if he does then ill go get my 60s and get custom dyno tuned before hand, because i work all this week so its gunna be over a week before me and him can go. so itll buy me some time...haha. hey does $500 sound about right for a complete dyno tune?

 

I went on a DynoDynamics dyno.. they dyno low as hell. and with just a full exhaust and intake I made 218 to the wheels. You'll make your money easy. Even without a tune.

 

yea i have no doubt that i will get over 210whp. something would be waaay wrong. im just wanting to get as close as possible to the 275whp that he got on his mustang gt just to prove to him that that lil v8 aint everything in the world...but ima need my 60s and dyno tune before i can get close to that...

 

$400-$500 for a complete dyno tune sounds about right. Good luck with the bet and keep us posted.

 

definetly will. thanks for the heads up. but im sure it wont happen till next week cause this guy doesnt like to wake up. he sleeps till 1 in the afternoon and goes to work at like 2 30...so ima try to get those 60s in and my tune before next week and go and do it...ill let yall know!

 

yea good luck. Let us know if you hit the 275 mark.

 

lulz ******* pwnt if he actually goes through with it .. ******* moron ... then after you dyno.. race him for another 100 depending on your numbers

 

haha thats funny you say that, he blew up his motor a week after he got all the work i stated below done...but he knows absoluetly nothing about cars. just the "brochure" type of person if you know what i mean...hell he has owned his car since he bought it brand new in 2003 and has never changed the oil himself, the spark plugs, air filter, nothing like that. he want touch it cause he doesnt know what he was doing. he was gunna pay me like 80 bucks to install his spark plugs for him..haha

 

LOL pwnt in an of itself lol

 

uhhh yea def gonna be above 210 haha

 

New Si's have a pitiful 138 tq. At like 12,467,885 rpms. But yeah even with just a Stg 2 you should dyno more than 210.

 

i dynoed more that 210 completely stock.


Tell him I need some money too

 

That is asuming your car is tuned and he pays for it in the first place. Some guys will shake on deals and never come through.
