Nice gains.

Can I bring something to everyone's attention.

These cars are incredibly sensitive to inlet air temperature in the actual plenum.

Before any assumptions are made about some years of cars being stronger than others it is essential further measurements are done.

Also, you have to bare in mind, that SAE and STD correction factors can really skew the numbers a little more than you would expect.

Tyre pressure and tyre type also have a profound effect on wheel power.

Anyway, dyno's are used for measuring delta's. The gains we are all seeing from the same upgrades are pretty much exactly the same.

I think it's about time we have another dyno guide. The last one was about cheating the dyno, this time it will be about testing.

That would be great Sal! I think a lot of us can benefit from this, considering that it's not as easy as many of us expect.

I'm referring to 2011 Model Year.

Here's a vid for anyone interested in hearing my exhaust set up. EAS did a great job. I took their advice on this combo as I was unable to hear it first hand and don't regret it. Sounds awesome. Thanks guys!

I just dynoed my car on a dynojet and it put down 361 whp. I thought it was weird and high at first but now this makes me think otherwise lol.

TMR · 02-13-2012, 01:16 AM

it would really be helpful if anyone who posts a dyno number or result would include the correction factor / method used, or mention if none was used at all.

at our most recent dyno session, a variation of approximately 30whp could be seen by modifying what type of correction method was used.
