Bears New Dyno report.. And some changes too! We installed a 4,400 converter, replaced bent valves from a previous cam and revlimiter bouncing, SLP smooth bellows (which I dyno tunned back to back <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> after a steady AF)
His Modds..
LS6 10.8 compression S2's re-worked *
918 Blu striped springs *
Thunder Racing 224/224/.561/114 cam
ASP single pulley
LS6 intake manifold *
4,400 Stall *
Strange 33 spline 12 bolt/3:73's
Mac headers W/ORP
Corsa Cat back exhaust
SLP smooth bellows *
HiPo Transmission
Lid N filter
JPR Ported TB
LCA's
SLP frame conns
DS loop
6 point roll bar
Upgraded braking system
Through the Corsa Cat back (theres no cut out) with Full acc belt on tuned in to the best of 411 @ 6,400 and 399 @ 4,700 Aaargg! almost 400 TQ SAE corrected with the converter locked. Very nice power under the curve numbers! First 400 RWH comes in at 5,600 RPM and stays well above to red line. I'm not too happy to see what happens to the valve train by 6,500 rpm's though, I think the 918's are becoming unstable? The AF and spark lead in looked fine with no KR at that point. I will ask 2MCH to post the sheet for us.

Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Thanks Joe. Cant wait to see it tomorrow. Thanks fOR ALL THE EFFORT. See u at Etown around 8:30-9. Call me if you want to meet earlier or later. Thanks Again. Bear <img border="0" alt="[gruffy cottonball]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_gruffy.gif" />
Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Hey Erik Deep 11's at 3900 pounds ain't gonna happen. I am realistic at the weight I am running what my goals are. I am hoping to run 11.67 or so. Who knows if the skinnies and my wife driving will help. I would love to do something more to the car to get more horse. Seems like now thats either more cubes, or the giggle juice. Who knows, I could do a 100 shot for the track. I would switch out the BRAND NEW TCS 4400 for something smaller more streetable(Mind u that I haven't even driven the car yet)and then unleash the gas at the track. Anyway I will know more tomorrow. Good Luck with your setup. I would like the see the graph if possible. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
Re: Bears New Dyno report.. congrats bear and joe.
great #'s especially thru a4, 12 bolt and complete exhaust system. i think if you had m6, stock rear with stock gears and a cutout, that combo would easily be over 430 hp (with a fairly mild cam). but enough bench racing. good to see the car up and running again!
see ya at the track tomorrow.

Good results, Joe!

Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Good luck Bear! If yah need skinnies, let me know and you can use mine sometime.
Just take a little weight out, atleast the sway bar, and the extra speakers. Those are good numbers for an auto through a 12 bolt!
Some guys are having success spraying with the bigger convertors so it might not be that bad of an idea. I'll let you know soon enough, I'll be spraying with a Yank 4200....

Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Before I forget, what are the smooth bellows supposed to do? A friend of mine ordered the SLP ones from Speed Inc and they were pretty cheap. What exactly are they supposed to do and do they really help? For $50 even if they only gave 2 hp, they would be worth it.
Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Yea, I agree with joe on the 918s. we <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" /> just quit using them with all the other options available!

Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Yay <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> Glad to see these results- awesome numbers through a 12 bolt with 3.73's! Hope you guys run some great numbers at the track, with all of those nice straight valves you have now <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Thanks Guys. Kenny the Bellows is SUPPOSED to straighten out the airflow between the MAF and Lid. I would put it in the same category as MAF Ends. $50 bux for both, around, so maybe it works, maybe it don't <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> but either way I have em. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" /> I need to make some changes to maximize the combo after that is straightened out I will get some Bogarts and do some weight removal. I appreciate the offer on the skinnies though.
Erin nice to hear from you. Kim says hello. Shoot her an email if u are bored. KimsBadSS@aol.com
Joe good job, Car Feels Strong. Bear

Re: Bears New Dyno report.. Special Thanks to Scott M. He helped my out Tremendously with the whole Atap thing. I now know what the hell I am doing.LOL <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> The graph hosting is a help as well. Next time we hook up whether its at Giant Stadium or Etown, Ill get u some lunch. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_images/icons/tongue.gif" /> I have to get rid of the knock. Scott the last run looked ok except for 1.5-2.5 degrees of knock in the upper RPM Range. Looks like their is some work to be done. Again Thanks for the help.
