Sent from my SAMSUNG Galaxy S III using telekinesis.

Good call on the fannie mae at such a low price!

Honestly not 100% sure sorry

Its the HP that seems a bit low to me. Not sure if the TQ number, or the HP number is closer to accurate (hopefully the TQ is) but ideally, the HP should be around 30 more than the TQ...which its not even close to that. The HP may be stronger than the dyno shows.

What sucks is you'll never know without going through the trouble of testing at multiple dyno shops and seeing what kind of averages you are getting.

Thanks! That's good to hear! I'm going to see if I can get my car dyno'd at ARD so I can have a comparison with the dyno I've been using.

Did you old dyno sheets have the same dips this one does?

I always assumed it was. I haven't heard anything yet, sent the datalog on the 1st of the month, awaiting a response. I just now sent them a pic of this dyno sheet too (through BNR).

Here are the previous dynos (the scales on the bottom aren't the same as at Phastek, so I can't really compare at each RPM):

2011


2012

Hmm, it's interesting that all your dynos have the same dips. Seem a little more prevalent in your current one though. I'd get it out to the track and see what she does! That should give a great indication of where you're at.

Yeah that is odd. I wonder if there's something physical (i.e. not in the tune) I need to take care of.

I'll try to get it to the track ASAP!

[lscamaro]

Could be something physical but I have no idea what you'd need to do. I think the track will show you the improvements you've made

True. When I grow up..... I'm building my own personal track to use when needed.

That'd be very convenient!

Yup. Or I'd settle for one of these:

We'll have to come up with a teleportation system for that! There are too many 1/4 miles between Texas and Florida.

I wouldn't mind a teleportation system. It will help me keep my miles down. But You should look at Costco's Setup for a racing simulator

35,000 Dollars can buy my camaro and most of if not all the mods i want

Tell me about it. I make so many 1,100 mile round trips to visit my parents.

Lol, I've seen that! Pretty neat with how it moves while you're driving. But that's a heck of a lot of money to spend on it!

Well I can't say much in the miles department as I might have one of the lowest miles on a 10 V6. Had mine since September 2009 and I just rolled over 5300 on Saturday. I should be somewhere near 5320 now parked in the garage.
