will do. thanks a bunch!

I dyno'd my car back in April 06' with 3 passes - the best pass I hit 183whp / 150 lb/ft. torque.

The mods I had at the time was only the Mugen intake, Hondata reflash, intake manifold gasket, using synthetic oil and less than 5K miles on the engine. Outside temp was about mid 60's with low humidity so the engine wasn't bogged down, but I did dyno with the heavy 19" SSR's instead of the lighter stock wheels

I'm convinced that I could have gotten better results if I had put on the stock wheels.

i read an article in sport compact car (or one of those import mags), lighter vs. heavy wheels had no affect on the dyno at all

FreDroRN

The shop where I dyno'd the car told me that the difference would be minimal between the wheels also, but I think it's just me being hardheaded esp. after I saw the numbers posted on the Hondata site.

I'll be going back to the dyno again, hopefully soon, and I'll see if the wheels make a difference since I'm running with the stock wheels now for the winter. The only other difference would be that I have the cat-back exhaust now.

tsxdriver

man pretty much the same setup except i don't have the IMG. plus it was hotter when i dyno'd. i must've been about 84-88 degrees outside. ran with royal purple and my gramlights with 6k miles. also ran with the 5zigen single exhaust. perhaps i should swap on my mugen and re-dyno.

h1coupe

got the car dynoed after the reflash and got

about 3-5kw at top final number (average from 2runs) was 130.75kw atw(175whp) up from 170.44whp
and torque was up from 224.7NM(165.7lb.ft) to 247.5NM(182.5lb.ft) that was max not atw.

but like always with hondata the biggest gain was around 6000rpm where I gained around 24-25kw atw around 33whp.

Looking at this graph as an example, is peak torque achieved at about 2000rpm? Official specs say that peak torque is available at 4500rpm. Why is the cross at 6000rpm for the torque curve?

NYT

You still have this graph that you post or email me?

^^ i presume corrected would make it lower?

minkl81

not sure. but think its about average for tsx with auto tranny. also the best run was cutoff even before 7000rpm.

h1coupe

the cross is to show where maximum gain was realised

Reach

Looks like your graphs are cutoff early, right around where the torque converter unlocked. Could be their software that does that. If thats true, its a more accurate result.

i think its not the software. they just cut it off before the redline.

i have a sae corrected graph in my other thread.

bone stock 06 auto TSX dyno'd on a dynojet-Sorry for the large pics, I dont know how to resize them...these are pretty old to, did them back in October or Nov

1slowTSX

Well here is my dyno result. As you can see, I made 179.87 hp and 142.26 tq. I don't think it accurate though.



According to TOV, the loop area is a false reading. So If my car is anything similar to TOV's car then I should be making 170-175 to the wheels.



Any thoughts.

The test results are almost identical between the two charts. Time to add Hondata.

Shoots! Wanna pay for my reflash?

tsxdriver

man i still can't figure out how you're producing more power than me!

Yes, I still have the graph. My site has changed. Anyways, here it is.



The only mod I have is the Hondata reflash, and that dyno was done back in 2005. BTW, my dyno is also on Hondata's website.

EuroRuben97

With just a reflash... how is that possible. ^^

NYT

Very cool... thanks for (re)posting this dude.

Fairly substantial power curve gains at 4k+ and there's even a "blip" at 3k too. I gotta get on this sooner than later.

Stock vs. Comptech header, K&N intake and hondata

^^^ What's with the spike?

Reach

tq converter lock

simplyscion

I really would like to get the reflash but my biggest issue is theres still no power down low and thats where I feel like the car is lacking the most...Its almost comparable to turbo lag on some of my other cars from 2-4K rpms...I leased this car so I dont wanna start adding I/H/E so the reflash I feel will be pointless without those additional breather mods. Plus as I mentioned, majority of the power is gained over 4000 RPM's which is not what Im looking for

Here's another for the 2006 MT-ers. Only engine mods are Injen CAI and Excedy Stage 1 Organic Clutch kit and Excedy Racing Flywheel, and TB coolant bypass if that counts. Just wanted to get my car dynoed before I get the Hondata done in a few weeks so I can compare.

Did two runs, first one apparently was better. Car was warmed up for about 15 minutes, sitting while I waiting for other people in front to dyno. Also, I think they guy didn't turn off the VSA when he did the dyno, if that matters. I wish I remembered to tell him to though. I also told them to run it until 7000 RMPs but it looks like they cut it before that But look at the VTEC kick in!

n1ke5h

heres a video of the second run...

I think he had it turned off. IIRC, you can't even do a dyno pull if the VSA is still on.

simplyscion

sure you can, that wouldnt have anything to do with it...why wouldnt you be able to do a pull with it on??

JTso

iTrader: (2)

You can't do a dyno pull on a two-wheel dyno with VSA on because the system will apply braking action to the front wheels when the rear wheels are not moving. I have accidentally left VSA on before and the whole car was shaking on the roller.

n1ke5h

cool beans...then i guess thats with the VSA off, but i still think i could have gotten higher numbers had he taken the RPMs a little higher. oh well, hondata here i come!

My 07 made 189hp and 152tq stock

just got hondata installed today
i don't really know what the number's mean
but i'm happy with it





oh, and the guy said their afr number's 1.0 higher

Suntzu

Just got my car DYNO'ed for the first time. Its stock.
Heres what I got



I dunno whats going on , thats less than 120 HP ATW

The Air/Fuel is all wrong and way too rich.

The guy doing the dyno started the dyno with VSA on but then turned it off. All the engine check lights came on and stayed on till i restarted the engine later and drove it for about 2 minutes.

Any ideas what might have screwed me here?

jwood_06TSX

I know that the reflash provides a pretty large increase around 5-6k and that your dyno is flywheel HP not WHP, but holy crap, that seems like an AWESOME inscrease. Did you do anything other than hondata? What other mods do you have??

Nice though

really?
the guy said it was wheel, oh well

hondata + k&n pod instead of air box

vwong

^^^ Did you leave out some information? There is no way to have that kind of increase with the 2 mods you listed. Sorry, I have to call this a BS.
