Thumbs up Had my car dyno'd today

I'll post the print out asap.
The best of four pulls was 228.4hp & 192.2 lb ft torque.
Stock the best pull was 198 and 182.

I am completely satisified with the headers!

Using some simple algebra, that would mean that you have 300 hp at the crank! I don't think your car was built on a Monday or a Friday.

Thumbs up

It also has a large S under the hood too. I've only seen 3 other dyno's and mine was the best so far.
Now if only AEM would release their CAI.

Would there really be a 70 horsepower difference between the crank and wheels? Seems like thats a little large. I would have thought 50-60ish at most..

First of all, NICE!! Damn, 228 at the wheel...WOW! The CAI should, IMO, give you an extra 5 or so to the wheel. Damn, I hope I never run into you in a race!

I have more shit than Mike and I only pulled 204 at the wheel. Granted that it's not a TypeS engine.

Oh yeah, the automatic transmission is probably the biggest reason why we are losing 20-25% HP from the crank to the ground.

yeah.....supposedly the loss for a manual transmission is more in the 10% range as compared with our 20-25. they should really make these cars with a 6-speed!!!

It has everything to do with it. Oh how I wish the CL came had an optional manual tranny.

How does next week sound? The printer at the shop is messed up so hopefully they'll have it fixed by then.
