Dyno Coming Up
As the title says, a dyno day is approaching for me. Anyone care to venture a guess as to how much (or how little) WHP I'll put down on the dyno?
Here are the goods:
~'96 3.2
~SW Intake + SW Filter partially converted to cold-air (will be finished by then).
~Magnaflow Cat mated to 2.25" cat-back routed to Magnaflow muffler.
~22 VTEC stickers.
That last mod had the BIGGEST gains, "liek teh sihts, omg foo!!!111!!1!2"
Here are the bads:
~Timing belt pretty much close to death.
~Tranny heats up pretty quickly and if it overheats, will not engage first gear.
~No first gear means no power until about 3K RPM.
~Slightly messed up front wheel-bearings.
I know it's a ridiculously short good list, but I'm working on that.
I found a parts car but before I could buy it, someone else did... 
So what do you guys think?
~Cheers~

Hrm... I'm hoping that the actual numbers would be higher as stock, aren't those the average numbers? 200HP & 210LB/FT - 15% parasitic losses = 170HP & 178LB/FT TQ...? Besides, I took an NA MKIV by a car+ and stock for stock it's got 25HP and 10TQ at the crank.

P.S. I'm only kidding. I'm in that mood right now, hehe.

Ok, so the dyno day was a success! We had a good turnout, and had about 13 cars strapped down. Unfortunately one of those cars was a Mustang, but the rest were my m8s in Supras. Ken, god damn you and your accuracy!! HAHA, I put down 173whp and 169wtq. That was in 95 degree weather, sucking all the exhaust fumes from the Supras. My A/F was around 13.6:1 which is ok considering I'm not boosting. I want to see if maybe adjusting the A/F and actually finding time to change out the wheel bearings/timing belt will net me some extra torque. Bearings/belt being maintenance only... Don't want to push her too hard on the existing equipment until that's done. I have a few videos and pictures which I'll probably upload soon.
~Cheers~
P.S. The power curve looked good, being pretty much a plateau after 2800RPM... until the drop off at 6500RPM.

I almost got the Type II manifold but someone else got it literally 10 minutes before me... I'm awaiting a chance to install my UD pulleys, and maybe just port the damn manifold instead of waiting around for a Type II to show up. $180 for that Type II SHIPPED!! I was SO pissed when I noticed it was gone... One thing though, Ken, the guy didn't even turn on the air blower for me... Maybe if he had it on, I could've beat your prediction by 1HP, hehe.

We got a special deal for only $30 for 3 pulls. Since I was the only FWD there, I got one extra so they could see if it was set-up properly. You don't HAVE to dyno, it's only if you want to see where you are in terms of power/mods and to tune your car to run optimally with those mods. Tuning is charged separately, though, and it's billed by the hour.
