CLS6 - Every bolt-on under the sun
So I've finished all the N/A mods on my car, and though a dyno would be in order. With a NEO tune I pulled 252hp and 223ft-lbs. They didn't adjust the VTEC engagement, since they felt that the car produced a very smooth curve.

I gotta say that I am a little disappointed. I feel like I have seen people dyno right around where I did without a few of the parts I got.
Thoughts / Comments?
-4" P2R Intake w/Spacer
-Intake Manifold thermal gasket
-P2R plenums
-bored TB
-XS Headers
-Full CT catback
-RT High flow cat
-UR Crank Pulley
Also, I regapped the valves and changed plugs two weeks ago.

My ECU did not have more then 20 miles of driving logged after the latest reset.
One point I forgot to mention, the tuner shop did not feel that the NEO would be over-ridden by the ECU since it operates in an open-loop mode at full throttle.

Nice man, how did you like RT Tuning? I will go there soon for dyno tuning. Also, what they said about the ECU seems to be the case with the s2k ECUs also. So I wouldn't be surprised if that is the case with our cars also.

you have to remember that not every dyno is the same.. and iirc mustang dyno's run less than dynapaks
what you should have done was a baseline and then another after all your mods were installed.. that's all a dyno is good for, really.

Well thats why I said I was disappointed...
Anyway, I don't know what the SAE numbers are. All the local info is on the dyno sheet, I haven't bothered to calc it out.

I actually dynoed worse with the Random Tech cat as I did before and after, I gained 5hp and 10lbs of torque with the stock cat.
I think the backpressure had something to do with the high flow cat.
I also dynoed better with the Icebox versus the AEM I originally had, only by a few horsepower though.

look on the bright side, you made more than horsepowercrzy18 did on his dyno w/ an s/c. He is auto though
^i retuned and dynod on a dynojet and made 291whp. i do agree that autos cant make hp for shit because the auto cl tranny sucks ass and theres a huge loss of power from the drivetrain which is exactlyyy why im doing a 6 speed swap

Currently I'm running with CT (headers, b-pipe, mufflers) as my only mods and I've been able to pull 14.1s in quarter mile with shitty launches. I have a 2.5" test-pipe installed as well.
Theres gotta be something restricting your car from getting maximum performance.

RT cat is actually whats restrictive it has a 2.0" inlet/outlet. Plus you can do some porting and polishing of the IM like me, doing the top helped, didn't notice much with the bottom though. Also lighter wheels/tires, aluminum flywheel with a decent clutch kit (Clutchmasters).
Also seafoam your car

Sounds like a lot of good info on the mods and such, great reading for a new user! Just starting to mod my CLS and I was hoping to find a P2R 4" intake, but I cant find one anywhere, any thoughts? where did you get yours?
