Default Texas Speed Engine Dyno Cell FINALLY COMPLETE!

After nearly 3 months of working on the engine dyno test cell, we've finally completed this project! As a lot of you guys already know, we spend countless hours engine dyno-testing our products in an effort to improve them, as well as compare them to our competitors' products. We had the new Superflow 902 custom-configured, so we will be able to begin dyno pulls as early as 2000 RPM to show complete data for a usable RPM powerband for true street vehicles!

Our engine dyno testing will begin immediately, so you can expect to see results posted up on a regular basis! We have a stock LS1 on the dyno right now that we're going to install an LS6 intake on to use as a baseline. EVERYTHING will be tested in an effort to improve on past parts. We will not accept that just because something has worked well in the past does not mean that it cannot be improved! We currently have 20 different camshafts for testing with durations below the 230 mark! We're going to perform side-by-side comparisons for every camshaft possible in an effort to maximize power for the customers' individual goals.

As a result, we will also be testing competitors' camshafts that make claims to produce super-human power. If anyone has a camshaft sitting around that you would like to be tested shoot me a PM. If we have time, we will do side-by-side testing to show how it compares to other camshafts on the market.

We plan on keeping many of the non-customer parts that we test in case anyone would like to drive/fly in to see the testing with their own eyes. Let that be a warning to people that want to try to discredit or call B.S. on any testing we're doing. THE DOOR IS ALWAYS OPEN! If someone wants to pay a little cash to cover the dyno time, we would be happy to re-dyno any combination that someone would like to see with their own eyes! We're offering honest results, good or bad. Anyone that wants to witness any of the testing needs to let us know!

Enjoy the pictures.

looks pretty nice. hopefully all the haters will step up to your challenge so we can stop hearing them whine. theres a reason everybody talks you guys up, you deliver great products and awesome prices, have excellent customer service and support, and not to mention that you guys don't try to claim something that you're not, which is all the reason why i've spent a couple grand with you the last couple months.

side note-just got my stage 2.5 243's in, now i can't wait to get home and get everything installed so i can finally enjoy my car!!!!

Looks good Jason. Just wondering if you could send me a PM on how much you would charge for some engine dyno time.

I'm happy for your guys. I bet you are all ecstatic to finally be able to get something like this! I can't wait to see some back to back tests and get some real numbers instead of some dyno trick .

If I recall correctly: with the LS1 intake, completely stock engine, Kooks 1 7/8" dyno headers, and tuning it did about 380hp.
