Holy Beeegeezers!

You would think they would tell us before making the changes on the forum! I have been struggling to get back in. I had to drop all my firewall and spyware to get back in. I then put them back in place and it's like it never hppened.

Did a Base Dyno run in Marietta GA, 3:40 PM (did not print it untill 4:30), 93 degrees and 60% Humidity. The only mods are a K&N drop-in and a Corsa Touring Cat-Back, running 89 octane. The tune is OE. On a Dyno-Jet.
I am not up on the usuall power curves for different motors. I would be interested in how this chart compares to the LM7's.
I want to be impressed with this and am told I should be. It seems the LM7's only get up to 245 RWHP.
I read the driveline loss is 15% and with GM's 310HP rating, minus 15% is 263.5 with a 46.5 hp loss. If this is correct and the norm then GM did not lie.
What do you guys think? What do you think the Radix will put her up to on the same dyno in near same conditions?

Any of you palm readers want to predict the final outcome with the Intercooled Radix? See my signature link and scroll to the bottom for actuall base run chart.

 

I'm a little confused....what were the final numbers?

 

ahhhh...............yeah...............what he said

 

I'd say......335hp, and 370tq. I made 353hp, and 398tq on a mobile dynojet, with the only aftermarket item being my wait4meperformance tune. Plus, the a/f measured 11.8. Make sure to get a wideband reading when you do the after runs. That's with a pure mail order tune, too.

 

His baseline was 268 hp, 288 tq. Was this 3rd gear or 2nd gear? TC locked or unlocked?

 

huh???

 

i believe there is a 20% driveline loss. 310hp - 20% = 248hp.

 

ooohhhhhh k

 

What???

His baseline runs are in the link at the bottom of his first post.

 

wow what a thread. I am not sure that the 15% applies to 4 wheel drive vechicles. We will definitely have a higher draintrain loss than the 2wd..... you should post your dyno results as well, it will keep the confusion down.
