Dyno'd my car today!!!

completely stock 01 Type-S with 5 spd auto with 56300 on the odometer, runnin Mobil 1 10w-30, approx. ambient 50-55 degrees

run 1 - HP: 199.5 TQ: 178.1
run 2 - HP: 202.1 TQ: 184.8
run 3 - HP: 205.5 TQ: 186.5
run 4 - HP: 207.5 TQ: 185.9


I think these numbers are pretty strong for bein a stock car, when taking into account drivetrain loss and such. What numbers are others seen'?

I think my first mod will prob be a header most likely the OBX unit mostly because of price, has there been any comparison reports between the OBX and Comptech header? whether one or the other has better flow characteristics?

the engine makes 260 hp at the crank. the dyno measures power at the wheels. we have ~ 20% hp loss through the drivetrain.

I think these numbers are pretty strong for bein a stock car, when taking into account drivetrain loss and such. What numbers are others seen'?

I think my first mod will prob be a header most likely the OBX unit mostly because of price, has there been any comparison reports between the OBX and Comptech header? whether one or the other has better flow characteristics?
Not bad for a stock CLS auto...

My modded '03 CLS 6sp (with CT intake/headers/b-pipe/exhaust) dyno'd at CompTech with 236 WHP and 201 lbs. Tq. running Pilot Sport A/S 225/50ZR17s on stock rims. Ambient temp was between 55-60 degrees. CompTech said that the crank HP was probably between 300 to 307.

Do the mods... I'd do the intake and headers together first. You'll see a lot more gains with both since they compliment each other.

There's no way you have 300hp at the crank. A 70hp loss would be a slipping automatic, not a fwd manual transmssion. To find out what the engine is making all you have to do it take your dyno numbers and divide them by .85 (6 speed) or .77 (auto).

you obviously dont know what you're talking about...the cl type S auto is dyno proven to have an approximate 23% power loss to the wheels...thats 69 hp off 300 or 231 whp is =to 300 crank

TypeR read the thread again.

Hookid on Foniks is ur frend.



And btw, you say it has 23% parasitic loss, I say divide by .77, does that SEEM like the same thing to you?

Actually that would be MULTIPLY by .77 if you want to get picky.

You got me

Altho technically I was still right. Dyno number divided by .77 will net crank hp in an auto.

im not sure what you're asking here but i do see now that he was talking about his 6mt i got stuckon your slipping auto comment...i think the 6mt is 17% therefore 249 whp=300 crank

I have always been told 15% for manual transmissions, and also consider that fwd's are a little more efficient than rwd so it's going to be a little less the standard for rwd.

A stock 6 speed shold in theory put down 221hp/197tq, which is pretty inline with what most people pull.

Question: 207.5hp...doesnt that equate to about 260hp crank, assuming 25% drivetrain loss (auto) ???? (If 23% loss assumption then I'm seeing 255 crank hp.)

If it was a Mustang Dyno add another 3-5% parasitic loss because that style dyno actually puts the engine under load which is actually more accurate than the free-wheeling DynoJet style.
