My Dyno Results
Talked about it a little in my other thread, but i'll make this the official one.

I got 194.3whp/184wtq on a dynojet. These numbers seem a bit low, what could be the possible problem? Unless, im just expecting more and these are perfectly fine. I have I/H/E/P and was expecting at least 200whp+.
Oil change is due soon, spark plugs have never been changed and are OEM (50k miles). I plan on changing the plugs to colder ones, I had zex plugs come with my nitrous kit which are for FI or Nitrous. Would those be ok?

The ZEX plugs are garbage. I've never had a set do well on the dyno (on tubo Civics). Replace them with a colder NGK plug.
What Intake and header do you have. I can see the exh. looks like Magnaflow.

I have an AEM V2 CAI with the dryflow filter, XSP Headers, UR Crank Pulley, and you guessed it, catback Magnaflow Exhaust.

Really? I thought a S would put down like 225-230whp with similar mods? Or would that refer to a CL-S 6spd.
Anyone else here with a tlp have any dyno #'s to share?

gotta remember all dynos and all cars read differently even TL P's.
best scenario would of been to get a baseline dyno while stock of ur car then use that same dyno after all ur mods. it would of been a little more accurate even tho there are many other variables to consider.
if u were to go on a diff dyno, u would probably pull close or over 200hp and then on another hi 180's. dyno numbers are relative. just a tool to see if the mods u get are really helping.
hope this helps.....

^Yeah, I pretty much realized that a dyno is just a tuning tool and for bragging rights. Im gonna take it to the track.. thats where it all matters.

For the best possible performance and dyno numbers you should do a few things before testing
Fresh Spark Plugs
Fresh Full Synthetic Oil- less friction=more HP
Clean Air Filter Element
Tires Proper Pressure
It will be interesting to see what my 01 TL pulls

^Yeh, i'll make sure I do that before the next dyno. I gotta clean my air filter (been 10k), change the plugs (50k), and change my oil (due next month).
L's TL- I'll make sure to bring a K&N with me to the next dyno to see if there really is any difference.
