First dyno for my WS6
First dyno for my WS6 I was able to get some numbers from my WS6 this weekend, gives me a starting point to work with now at least. I was a bit supprised with the numbers myself, but I'll let you guys be the judges.
My setup consists of nothing more than a lid, !FRA, and a Magnaflow catback, and this was done on a Dynojet dyno which we all know tend to be a bit more generous in numbers.
Best numbers- 329.7whp / 340wtq
Funny thing, the first pull taken had one of the dyno guys hold a blower up to the lid while they took the pass, 329.7, next pass he laid it on the ground and the car only pulled 319whp. The operator was calling it heatsoak (which I agreed with), but the other guy was saying it was the lack of air present at the lid. The argued this for a minute and finally asked me if they could do another pull with the blowed at the lid again, I of course agree and they take the run.. 329.7whp
I was supprised as anybody, guess the Ram Air effect is real afterall!
