You might want to include in the title "makes 500awhp with 1.05 TCF" as the original "475whp" numbers were done at 1.00tcf.

Isn't that the power at the flywheel NOT rear tires?

nanokpsi

With a 1.00 torque correction factor it is hub horsepower, so it is naturally higher than with the weight of all 4 wheels and tires. Then, any additional amount can be applied but is typically listed on the screen, where as this dyno was with an additional 5% correction.

I'd own one, regardless of how much Chinese horsepower the exhaust adds.

You have been hating on this car since it came out, stop being so damn ignorant

dailydriver

Do you go on the riceboy/import fanboi forums and defend OUR rides/put down their "ignorant" domestic 'hateas' as vehemently as you do for them on here???

First of all I would like to see you call me ignorant to my face, since we are both from Illinois. Dont go insulting people online if you arent going to do it in person. You shouldnt go insulting people online at all for no reason, try acting like an adult.

Also, I am not "hating" on this car "yo". Im sure it is a "tite azz whip", but it isnt my style. I am just stating my opinion, it is ignorant for you to think I am doing otherwise. Them claiming 22 whp from a cat back is like claiming 15 from a K&N, its advertising BS.

Just because it's on the internet doesn't make it true.

It's obvious you have never really worked with turbo cars before. I'd say educate yourself before stating something like "22whp!!! NO WAI!"

I have worked on all types of cars before. Fact is this is supposed to be a completely stock car with just a cat back, not a car with the boost turned up, etc. If there were other mods, maybe. Also this is a high end performance car that probably has large diameter exhaust that is pretty free flowing. This isnt an early 90's Eclipse or Camaro where the exhaust was an afterthought. Turbo cars and large displacement cars do react well to better exhaust (due to the fact they flow larger amounts of air), but I would also call BS if somebody claimed the same from a cat back on a Z06.

Edit- this is still a 2 into 1 into 2 exhaust, not even true duals. And many people are calling it a flywheel HP rating. This is also from a company developing the exhaust. Still believe everything you read?

A turbo motor with a freed up exhaust not only flows better, but the turbo is allowed to spin much more easily, meaning much more efficiency and much more power...hence 60+whp gains on a turbo car.

gallardo259

so what is the actual hp output of the GTR stock? apparently the 480 hp rating isn't even close if any of this thread is true. does this cat back include the removal of the cats? or any tuning? on a side note, i'd be pissed if i dropped 80k on a GTR and found out it had a 'shitty exhaust' on it. i would wonder about the quality of the rest of the car.

I seriously doubt that the car has "shitty exhaust". Remember emissions.
Overall quality on this car can probably be expected to surpass C6 levels.


This is coming from a person who is a GM fanboy to the core, but is realistic enough to respect a good thing.

dailydriver

WHY is that?? Just because it's a Nippon import???!!!

RedBeauty84ZX

Just a quick glance at the GTR makes it pretty evident that the quality surpasses the C6....several journalists have already said it is as good or better then the Porsche 997s quality.

Impressive car, just don't care for how it looks!

dailydriver

And of course we MUST take the word of your sacred (and Nippon worshipping) journalistas as absolute gospel, right??

You've seen, hands-on, in person your precious GTR to be able to tell this???
Or can/do you judge everything by a "quick glance"??

mzoomora

YOU can see at a quick glance at pictures from a magazine what the quality of a vehicle is? They all look good in pictures, give me a break. The quality is yet to be seen because the car is yet to be seen. With all the posts you have made you may get my vote for Nissan FANBOI OF THE YEAR.
