Dyno'd TEA Stage 1.5's/Sleeper cam/A4/Stock exh. manifolds I dyno'd at Camaro SuperFest this past weekend. Previous dynos:
- When the car had a 6-speed, 9-inch, tuning & bolt-ons: 342 RWHP/355 RWTQ
- After the A4 swap, w/ TCI 3500 stall converter, otherwise same mods as above: 320 RWHP/332 RWTQ w/TCC locked
This time I added the following:
TEA "Stage 1.5" 5.3L heads w/Comp 987 springs & Ti retainers
Comp Cams 222/224 .566/.567 115 LSA cam (Sleeper)
Manley hardened pushrods
Comp "R" lifters
ASP underdrive crank pulley/overdrive alternator pulley
Gutted cats (they actually sound GOOD with my SLP Dual/Duals! )
More LS1 Edit tuning (but still running a little rich)
Result (still through stock manifolds) : 378.7 RWHP, 356.2 RWTQ
(BTW, the lower HP dyno run was when I was running way lean & was getting lots of knock. We stopped that run at 5500 RPM and I changed the PE Mode tables while the car cooled off a little.)
I'm shifting at 6500, could probably shift higher if I had more faith in the bottom end!
I know I could probably pick up another 20 HP or so through longtubes, but I'm going to hold out for another month or so & enjoy how quiet this thing is!

Re: Dyno'd TEA Stage 1.5's/Sleeper cam/A4/Stock exh. manifolds Those are some good numbers with stock manifolds. My set-up is almost the same. I hope to get some of the same numbers.

Re: Dyno'd TEA Stage 1.5's/Sleeper cam/A4/Stock exh. manifolds Those are great numbers running through the stock manifolds...
My 2001 A4 dyno'd 374 at the wheels with Absolute Speed 1x heads and a baby cam 216/220 525.532 on a 114 using Bassani Mids/Y-pipe and a Corsa out back; losing some power through the Vig 2800 with a 2.5 str.
New valvetrain components and Thunder cam going in very soon...

Re: Dyno'd TEA Stage 1.5's/Sleeper cam/A4/Stock exh. manifolds On the same dynojet I have been using since I was stock.
332.6 RWHP @ 6000
358.2 RWTQ @ 3600
I gained 36 RWHP? WTF!!
On a Mustang dyno, numbers were
347.6 RWHP @ 5700
362.0 RWTQ @ 3600
332.6 RWHP @ 6000
358.2 RWTQ @ 3600
