Just a little video from today

http://home.comcast.net/~mrluos/dynotimes.wmv

531.1 RWHP
481.1 ft/pounds

But not on that pull.
Can anyone tell me why that pull was 470 RWHP?

I am guessing that you were spinning the tires on the dyno. Sounds good man.

Re: Just a little video from today



This is the sad part.
SAE corrected numbers....
531.1 RWHP
481.1 ft/pounds

Actual non-adjusted numbers....
443.5 RWHP
402.0 ft/pounds

And the track is 600 feet higher than the dyno shop.

More than that.
Picked up 11 RWHP and 15 ft/pounds in the non-corrected numbers.
The SAE numbers were 8 RWHP and 11 ft/pounds gained.

The non-corrected numbers are more important here.
Plus, the computer was still learning the new flow. Only had about 20 miles of drive time with the cutouts on.

Re: Just a little video from today

I'm guessing the guy sprayed VHT on your tire to help with traction.. Unfortunately I don't think he sprayed enough on there. By the sound of that lope why did you choose such a small cam ?

Sounds bad ass congrats.

Not VHT.
It is your everyday belt dressing. Works on the dyno somehow. I don't get into that stuff.

Baby cam.
