Ready for some fun?
Back in October, my car ran 282HP and 293T on Dennis's DynoJet. It was cooler then. Here's the chart:

It's fairly typical run with a relatively straight AF line. Good numbers for the mods on the car at the time.

This run is right after the headers and before any additional tuning...
This one shows a gain of about 15HP and 11T. Good stuff...

This run shows a slight DROP in HP. The car WAS getting hot, though. Ambient was 96 and humidity was pushing 20%. However, take a look at that HP line! From 2000-2500 RPM there's 220-250 HP available!!! I can FEEL that. It takes FAR less pedal to pass and move through traffic. So, while the numbers were not as high as I'd hoped, overall, the car IS FASTER due to not having to WAIT for power.
Of note: although that AF line is pretty good, DR made 2 more pulls to flatten it further with no change in HP or T.

Looking good. Looks like you have some nice T ( and HP) gains in the 2000-5000 range with the headers.

Not to pick at details, but the HP and T do not seem to cross at 5250 rpm on the first run. Any idea what is up?

Not really. It's from last year. I don't remember a whole lot of it's details.

The results look great Rich. It's good to see you're happy with your dyno results. Looks like we're gonna have to go to Moroso for some Mono on Mono.

Too bad you wont be attending MV-V. I would like to go head to head with you in a drag race and see what those headers really did for you. :burnout:

Nice results Rich. Glad you're liking them headers.
