Default What can I expect from a dyno?

1997 Formula, A4:

Jet Hot LT headers
3" cutout *open*
ORY
LPE CAI
160* thermostat
Madz28.com tune
TBB
!Air
No spare or jack

I know some won't do anything on the dyno, but I just thought I would list them. I ran a 13.49@103.57 with street tires spinning. With E/T Streets I should be about a 13.19-13.2x. Can someone help me on what I could expect from a Dynojet and Mustang dyno?

a car trapping 103.5 has 320 rwhp? since when? if that's the case then my stock 00 with just a lid was putting down 320 hp to the tires.

I trapped 103.5 because I had no traction and a 2.0790 60'. Better tires would give me about 13.1@105. I'm getting M/T E/T Streets. If I get about a 1.7 60' I'll trap much better.

I would venture to guess 300-315HP.

285 on a dynojet is about right for your mods.

i ran almost an identical time with the SAME 60'. i honestly don't think your car has enough *** to run a 13.1 only trapping say 104 at best. unless you get a converter, your 60s won't get much under 2.0.....

I will be less than a 13.1 with a stall, tires, and gears. If I got my 60 foot down that much, i would see between a .2-.35 difference in my 1/4 times. If I got E/T Streets my 60 foot would go down a good chunk.

I'd say you should dyno around 305rwhp. As for trap speed that really can get confusing, I ran stock 13.8 at 106, with lid and catback a 13.54 at 106, with 3:42 gears a 13.24 @ 106, with LT headers a 13.0 @ 105, but could have ran faster a few times, but was ET drags. Then a few weeks later added a 3,400 stall and nittos and ran a 12.696 @ 105.86. So I ran from a 12.69 to a 13.8 all at basically the same mph.
