% loss thru drivetrain?
% loss thru drivetrain? I asked this ? in the Dyno forum.Can anyone tell me what kind of hp/tq am I giving up at the crank by dynoing on a chasis dyno with a 6-speed and a Moser 3:73 12 bolt?
Thank You for any replies

The A4 doesn't loose that much compared. Especially if the converter is locked and it's in 3rd.
I cannot say exactly but every car is different. I've seen people say anywhere from 8-15% for the manual. Only real way to know is an engine dyno and a chassis dyno but even then you run into dyno variance.

I would be looking at the LAMDA number If your engine makes power under a full load on the dyno and you are not lean I would say you are in the spec for the injector. You got 98% full capacity as a high value in you Data. or can you watch the injector cycle as you make the dyno pull?

What injectors are you running now? For most stock cube built motors the ls3 injectors are plenty. I'm at ~430rwhp and my injectors max at 65%. FI will certainly need more.
Ideally you don't want to go over 80%.

I got my LS3's off eBay for $120 with 1200 miles. People are selling them on there all the time.
Adapters and pigtails were needed but I still saved $100-150 over aftermarket options.
Keep in mind they are 42lb@58psi.
