Default Impressive Power gains from my winter project work.

Ok,

While waiting on parts for Cleckchaum's car, I was able to get mine going. Here's the list of mods between the two dyno graphs.

From 1-3/4" Dynatech Supermaxx system to 2" Kooks headers with midpipe.
From B&B bullets to Magnaflow 16732 like Arun's doing the group buy on.
From A&A large dongle to custom 4" intake pipe.
Haltech filter. It was dirty and left on during all dyno runs. The car sat for no longer than 15 minutes before runs. These are real numbers.
Added a meth nozzle to the intake pipe.
Went from a 2.85" pulley to a 2.67" pulley
From 8 to 10 rib serpentine system with custom idler pulleys from Arun @CCP
The nice thing is that I didn't just pick up at the peak, but achieved nice gains across the entire pull. Just shy of 150RWHP.

After changing all of the parts, I re-tuned the car accordingly. This is 93octane with Meth on top. It's a meth-reliant tune. I'm really happy with the results.

Yeah, moddin the car is real fun when you get results. Whether it's better looks, sound or more power. It hits real hard around 4500 and up. Real hard. It's damn violent. Now I know why.

I only have Winpep for evaluating my dyno runs and don't have much experience with it. It doesn't seem to want to do what I tell it to. Try multiplying the HP x 5252 and dividing it by the RPM at any given intersection.

Man, I now have the absolute best transmission gears for it. I hear it really sucks down there when you're a driver. Pushing your car through the line all day to make that one pass. Arun is supposed to be coming down in October, so if I'm going to do it, that would be the time. I know what it'll do, but knowing and showing are two different animals. I just need to grow some nuts and come down there.

Go to the right side of the screen and click on where it says none. A drop down window will pop up and you can choose torque and several other options.

Very nice pulls. What kinds boost?

Thanks man. I have a 3.3 bar sensor and haven't compared it to anything to verify it's accuracy, but I was showing 236KPA at the end of the pull. I did calibrate it to make sure it is at 100kpa before startup. That puts me just a little over 19psi.
