TL Type S Dyno Plot
hey guys, I decided to put my 2007 TL S on my dyno today..
Being that its a fresh motor, probably not completely broken in, and that its an auto tranny. the numbers arent bad.
Also please note, my dyno is not a generic Dyno Jet. it reads about 10-15% lower than a dynojet, which most people are familar with.

Even with a 15% margin of error, that would make the reading about 257.6 HP, which is more on par with the base TL. A TLS should not be reading at 258HP. I'd be interested to see what your dyno will read after putting miles on it. In the meantime, how bout some pics??

the TL makes 258 at the crank... and since there is a loss in power when the power is transfered to the wheels, a dyno will show you wheel horsepower... what matters is the amount of power you are getting to the wheels because that is what moves the car... ideally speaking, an AT will lose about 20% and a MT will lose about 15% power going from crank to the wheels... so those numbers for a TL-S 5AT is about right...
did i miss anything guys???

Look right ot me and yes DD dynos do read lower than Dynojets although Mustang dynos are very close to DD.My evo has been on all three so I have seen the differance.Nice numbers!!By comparison my evo stock dynoed 236 whp (rated 275 CHP) on a dyno jet.
