Got the 3L Dyno Tuned

[imurdaddytoo sport]

A little less then I expected but the car also runs a lot better now.

 

[Harrry]

why did it stop at 6k?

194 tq
186 hp.

Those arn't that bad of numbers. They could be alittle higher.
I would throw a larger tb on there IMHO. The 3L's seem to respond real well to an opt 65mm tb. You don't have headers listed, if that is on stock pre-cats then you are showing good numbers.

cause he BAH

 

[beyondloadedSE]

Is this a straight oval port 3.0L?

3.0L cams?

If you dont have MSDS headers, those are damn good numbers.

 

[BurritaSVT]

A straight 3 liter taurus motor with just manifolds puts down 197whp and 204wtq with a tune. I am not sure if he is making the power he should though every setup is different. joey

 

[striker2]

one thing to keep in mind is that Logan Motorsports uses a dynapack dyno. they typically give numbers that are about 10% less than a dynojet dyno.

that would put him at ~206HP and 215 TQ

FWIW, my turbo Zetec put down 200HP and 220 TQ on this same dyno

BTW no headers as of now, looking for a used set soon and if i dont get them Joey you will soon have a pm............ anyone wanna help this an install?

This is worldtours old car right? Straight 3L. No SVT cams.

Not sure if it's WorldTour's old car but he just bought it from Reebs a few months back.

Btw Grant, Sunny is definitely looking to get his tuned there as well in the near future I think.

Yes, this is his old car.

nice man finally got it done, i was like 5 minutes away from logan motorsports today picking up a new MAF from this one guy. What kind of chip did you buy?

 

[imurdaddytoo sport]

I just went with the flip chip that they carry, I know ppl will rag on me for it but I dont need an xcal2 so i went w/ the cheaper one, and yes Todras its marks/alexs/jeffs old car so it has the 3L cams. Sunny you should definently get it tuned, my car runs 10X better now and I'm not really too afraid to hammer it anymore

 

[watcanbrowndo4u8]

ha im hoping to do it real soon, how much did the dyno tune alone cost?

 

[watcanbrowndo4u8]

oh yeah one more question, did your car run rich as hell when you got it? mine does and its KILLING my gas mileage. i didn't know if i had another problem or what

Thats pretty typical.

BTW, typical first time dyno tunes cost about $500.

 

[watcanbrowndo4u8]

even if i purchased the xcal 3. like it would be $500 for the tuning or the chip and the tune?

 

[Pudmunkie]

Just FYI, those stock manifolds are gutted, better than full stock but not as great as headers!

The XCAL doesn't need a chip. It just reflashes the PCM. Check Nautilus's website for pricing and tuning services.

 

[imurdaddytoo sport]

Sunny its 250$ for the tune and then 50$ for someother little stuff, so 300$ total and by far the best place around for a dyno tune

 

[imurdaddytoo sport]

plus 280$ for the chip so 580$ total about, it was a little less for me b/c i know them but thats about what it'll be for you, I would just go with the chip, and yes mine was running rich as hell and i was getting about 15 mpg, now im seeing about 22
