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.

Jason, I would just like to see a range of cams from 220-232 duration tested using a single pattern, and then adding various dual-pattern characteristics.

Same with using a range LSA's of 108-114. Add some lift, and compare.

Many of us are looking for that overall 'sweet spot' of average HP/TQ over a 3000-6600 RPM range, whether it is cam, heads, intake, etc.

Congrats on the setup.

Looking forward to the results.

..WeathermanShawn..

I see you have the stock LS1 with LS6 intake and headers in the photos. What kind of horsepower did it make?

I believe that was actually a Non-EGR LS1 intake in that picture. That combo did right about 380hp (sorry don't know torque off the top of my head). LS6 intake just went on this morning.
