Default Paging Chris Pippy

Chris can you email/pm me with your dyno numbers and mods at the time way back when with the Powerdyne.

Mine is not making nearly the power I expected with my mods.

Please include things like what octane fuel, what programming if any, exhaust config, how much boost you were seeing, etc....

Thanks!

Hey man <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />
My best dyno numbers with the stock motor were
435RWHP@5200rpm and 433RWTQ@3600rpm through full exhaust
Mods were:

Powerdyne 4.5 kit with my own intake (Saw 5.5#s on the gauge)

MAC headers with ported primaries and offroad

3 inch int pipe and Dynomax race magnum bullet muffler

30# SVO injectors with Powerdyne FMU and opened restrictor

ATI inline fuel pump
stock MAF

stock programming

160 thermo

NGK TR6 plugs

MAFT

HPP for fans and thermo

Mcleod clutch

3.73 gears

2 gallons of race gas in about 1/3rd tank of 94 octane

That is about it I think?
Hope this helps
Chris

Thanks Chris. I would have been chasing imaginary HP. I thought you were making closer to 450. Knowing this, what I made makes a bit more sense since I only saw 4psi on the guage, it was on 91 octane, thru cats, and I still have the 2.75" exhaust.

Thanks again.
