Dyno?

[XGamesJ6]

Many people have told me, not to even try to dyno my car, or be too hard on it...well a short while ago, i got on a dyno, and pushed it. i was expecting very less then what i got.

117 HP
133 LB-FT
At the wheels

it was a nice run, all goin good, sounded nice at WOT at around 70-80

All i have is a short ram intake, which actually kind of sucks hot air off the exhaust. I plan to fix that issue.

And instead of a cat, a test pipe, with two old torn mufflers, rapped in muffler bandages.

and of course, a fresh oil change

Maybe more mods? Not sure yet.

That seems low.... what engine/trans is in your car ??

[XGamesJ6]

It's the 3.1L V6 Vin T paired up with the 4T60-E Tranny

factory spec is 140 HP, 185 FT-LB to the crank, i believe

140 HP - 20% = 115.2 (wheel HP), so you are close to factory spec.

So my GA SE is 234HP at the wheels, do I add 20% to make it crank HP reading.......

... 280.8hp at the crank

[HotZ28]

Yes, 20-25% is a good number, either added or subtracted, on an auto trans car.

so infact, im over factory spec, so the test pipe and intake i guess did do something.

just curious, i remember hearing somewhere that i can take the upper and lower intake manifolds off of the 3.4L DOHC and they will fit on my 3.1L V6, and in turn i would get some gains off of that, but im not too sure about the fuel injectors, vaccuum lines, etc. any words of advice if i was to partake in this daring move?

OOopS!

That 234 was wrong, thats the torq my 3.4 has, its only 224hp, so that like 269 at the crank

This link might explain what will fit your 3.1.
