GTP, WSFrazier, and myself(FastSS06) went to Hybrid Dynamics in Youngwood today to see what our cars are realy putting down at the wheels.

FastSS06 (SS/SC) Max Hp=246 Max Tq=210


WSFrazier (SS/SC) Max Hp=204 Max Tq=192


GTP (SS/NA) Max Hp=163 Max Tq=158

 

What are the mods on each if any?

 

I have a 2.9" pulley, Injen CAI, and the GM Performance Exhaust

WSFrazier is bone stock

GTP has an Injen CAI, and the Vector tune

 

nice #'s

 

i think fraziers will dyno more as he racks up miles...I know mine felt slow until about 4k then it felt like a whole new car.

Nice numbers...i need to go redyno with my new tune

Dan

 

True...look at the long term tests in any of the major auto mags - you'll see a strong consistency of cars putting out better numbers all around at 20k, 30k, 40k miles than brand new.

 

FastSS06 what gear did you do your pull in. Those are really good numbers. Ive seen the stage 2 with intake and exhaust dyno in at about the same. Thats really sad for gm, if you can make the same numbers without the injectors or reflash.

 

runs should be run in 3rd...weve proven that 3 and 4 are within 2 hp of one another and 3rd means u dont have to go to 140...which no one does

Dan

 

I was reading on the intense web site and they recomended only to dyno in 2nd gear. Why do they say 2nd and every one else says 3rd?

 

i had intense dyno tune my car and we did it in 3rd...on gtp's they have to use 2nd otherwise they'll hit limiter...its a 4spd auto

 

oh i see. But is what i still don't understand is fastSS06 numbers, those are really good for just bolt-on's ( about 290hp to the crank). Is what gets me is even the intense stage 3 only dyno's in at 255whp. not even 10hp for a tuned PCM and Injectors. Seems like almost a waste of money, when you could put that toward something els and gain even more hp.

 

daves car runs real strong for some reason...I noticed it last time I was in it.

idk I cant explain it

Dan

 

On the way back I got into a little fender bender too guys ******* cavvy slammed on his breaks and I just slid right into him, cheap ass tires, lol. From the looks of it all I need is a new bumper + front grille. Im just glad the hood wasnt even touched cause I know that sucker is pricey. All I can say is there goes my intake money again...

 

No, INTENSE's stage 3 does not dyno only 255whp. It says that on the site to be CONSERVATIVE. Rob put down like 268whp or somthing close with the old stage 3 that didn't have pcm tuning. Also, injectors aren't going to add horsepower. They're only going to allow you to make more horsepower. His numbers are good, in fact all of them are. Every car is different, and I can be confident that he'll gain more than 10hp with a custom tune. Wsfrazier, I don't know how you tied a 2.4 with 41 more horsepower and 34 foot lbs of torque more AT THE WHEELS. Sorry to hear about your fender bender.

 

Wes... sorry to hear that man. That really sucks. Hope it's not too bad to fix. Are you still gonna try to make the show tomorrow night?

 

I dunno. The car is perfectly dirveable. It just looks like **** with the bumper dented and shifted up. It will come down to how bored I get tomorrow, this is my only car ATM so I would have to bring it. I don't want to look like an ass with a busted SS showing off, lol. I will get pics up in a minute.

 

.......there is another orange SS that shows up that has a wrinkled up fender.....must be a Sunburst thing.....j/k, but ya come down and hang out anyway

 

Sorry to hijack the thread, but here are some pics I took at the scene with my phone. No one was hurt or anything, just a little love tap. I was very surprised at how badly the breaks and tires held. I wasn't even going fast and they just slid like ice, never gripped once. Sure felt the ABS though. The hood looks damaged but its not, the bumper is actually raised a bit now so it's pushing up on the hood. The support arm that was behind the bumper is totally bent in, but I can't tell if it pressed in on the radiator at all. You guys can take a look and poke fun at me tomorrow.

 

How can you say that injectors won't make any hp. I could see that with a stock car but one with a cai and 2.9 pulley is probley running a little lean and with the larger injectors the car will be getting the amount of fuel needed for the added boost......hence making more hp.

 

Actually I believe Dave said he was still running a little rich, I can't really see on those graphs.

 

actually i was running kind of lean, according to the charts...

 

If he is still running a little rich than why would for example the gm stage 1 come with injectors, than it would run super rich. They clame a 30 hp gain, and theres no way all that hp is gaind through a reflash an the injectors do nothing but make you run really rich.

 

bring your car to the show tommorow night Wes......if you want we can work on it there.....

 

He is running a little lean. So in his case injectors would increase his hp.

 

Lol. better bring a few hammers/mallets. Maybe a torch. Nah I will most likely be there, just a little embarassed
