general consensus is Shawns dyno is generous, who cares
LOL, anything to knock it down.
Yes my car runs great, thanks! wbt's car is an auto! auto's are faster and more consistent than manual's all day, we've been over this before, dyno numbers are a tool I started at 395RW and now 462RW, whats not to believe? I'm not here to get into a internet fight LOL! Again regardless of air it's an AUTO!!!!
Why are the auto cars picking up more on the back half than manual cars?
Running the numbers, looks like with the typical shift points and gear/tire combinations that the 3-4 shift happens right about or a bit after the 1/8th mile. Like 7500/28"/3.73 is good for 99 MPH in 3rd. Make it a 3.55 and it's 104 MPH. For an automatic run the numbers again, say with something like 7500/28"/3.31 and you're looking at 80 MPH in 2nd. 3.15 makes that 85 MPH. So the auto isn't shifting after the 1/8th mile, the manual is. When you're shifting, you aren't putting power to the ground. JJ's car ran a better back half than wbt's. Well, it has a 3.90 gear so he was into 4th probably around 95 MPH, before the 1/8th mile.
Don't know why the attitude is that bolt on auto cars are faster. I haven't seen one run 10.29. Now some people would throw that JPC car out of the discussion with "it's a race car and it only weighs 3000 lbs". Well it's still the fastest bolt on car, but even if you take it out of the picture, I don't see any autos running 10.88 yet either. So the statement that the autos are faster simply is not backed up with any timeslips.
Not at all. I was just curious. You want to turn into something else? :nonono:
Your car does run well...one of the few who has run in the low 11's with bolt-on's.
Regarding auto's being faster....that hasn't happened yet. We have 3 manual trans cars that have run 10's. No auto's yet.
The point kdanner was making is that Dynocom dyno he uses reads high. There have been several prior heated discussions about it to add some context.
Anywho, keep it up. With more weight removed, I think you have a shot at getting into the 10's which I would personally like to see more of.
Well this whole thing about Shaun's dyno being Generous is total bullshit... I just dyno'd my car yesterday on a Dynojet at XXX Motorsports in Pensacola FL.. A dyno known to be stingy!! My car put down right at 600rwhp SAE Corrected.. The Owner of XXX Motorsports said my car is right at 627rwhp on any other Dynojet.. Guess what.. My car put down 627rwhp SAE correct on Shaun's Dyno.. The Dyno is right where it should be.. It's not generous, it's where it's at with most Dynojets..
I wasn't racing dyno's.. Someone mentioned it's generous.. It's not.. You also gotta take with it that those were probably STD numbers not SAE..

Well what *should* I be running? and yes these number are STD...We don't race dyno's now do we. Track numbers don't backup his dyno generated numbers. Believe what you want.
I assumed your car probably weighs in the neighborhood of 3700 with you in it (obviously plus or minus) given the trap speed and ET that puts you at 522 flywheel (using that sweet online HP calculator) and assuming 15% driveline loss thats 444hp at the tires which is pretty close to his dyno numbers. Ricer math aside the car runs damn strong!
Thanks bro:beer: BTW have you made the switch to the corn yet?
say you wanted to switch from corn to gas can you just fill the tank and switch tunes or is there more to it?
no I need the 900 bucks for injectors and then the cost of the BAP. I can only imagine how retarded my car would be on the corn... That will most likely happen after i get back from Bahrain.
