Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Dyno and Drag Dyno day with my CSVT

Well it was a few weeks ago but i figured i'd post it up I needed a before dyno to compare to




Not bad for an NA 2.5? I'm still running a little rich at WOT so there could be a few more ponies to be had

What kind of mods?

I think I am the only other person who has been on a Dyno Dynamics dyno. FWIW, I dyno'd at 162whp (175whp on a dynojet) IIRC. Your numbers seem very high for that dyno considering they usually are much lower than a dyno jet. Either that or my car really blows, lol.

Now that I think about it, mine may not have been corrected for altitude. Either that or your operator added in some correction factor to change to better numbers, cause usually the DD dynos are known heartbreakers. Do you know if he changed the numbers or not?

Need more info.

Well, for what this is worth, the dyno is located at a huge subaru tuner. Most of the STi's in there dyno like 20-30hp lower than dynojet dynos. Everyone who has had dynojet numbers that run this dyno all complain of low numbers. Not that it really matters, but they all do. So I dont really care about the 162whp on the DD dyno, cause I have a 175whp Dynojet to compare it to. Though the Dynojet was sans a few mods that I have now (no real big ones, but stuff like magnecors, UIM/LIM cleaning [was nasty on the dynojet], a properly functioning rear upper 02, raised redline, etc.)

I still havent gotten my tuning finished, mainly because Im moving back to sealevel and by the time we got my altitude tuning done it would be good for about 3 months, then I would have to have it all redone, so Ive just waited. Brent and Brenspeed was cool with letting me wait, so once I get back to Florida Im going back to a Dynojet to get everything sorted out.
