Yeah so I dynoed my S today. Came down to 261 HP and 241 TQ. Supposedly he said that is around 305HP adn 286TQ at flywheel. I am pleased. This is with AEM CAI, UR underdrive pulley, Outlaw engineering thermoblock spacers, ans stage 3 exhaust (pre-muffler removed, dynomax resonator instead of stock resonator). I did 6 pulls, 3 with IAT sensor in stock location and 3 with IAT sensor in intake tube. In intake tube was average of 2hp and 2tq better.

 

I am dynoing mine on Monday for a stock baseline. Thunder Racing is about three miles from me and has a dynojet

 

Awesome, cant wait to see what you get, that will be cool to see the difference. If you compare Acura's claimed 286hp to the calculated crank hp of 305hp now than I geuss it means I got 20hp out of the mods I have done. Sounds about right.

 

Those seem like good numbers. I will probably head to a dyno once I get some more miles on the car.

 

by chance did u get a baseline stock dyno pull? im curious what a stock one does on that particular dyno.

i think a 07 TL S on honda-tech.com had their dyno'd at 224hp/2xxtq all stock.

 

Wow........your tq number is just 10lb less than most S/C 3G TL. Nice numbers!

 

very nice

 

no but as stated above someone said they will do that




The TQ was what excited me the most. I was hoping on between 260-270 hp but didnt really know what to expect on the torque. My experience with honda motors is usually the torque is a good bit less than the hp, I am extremely pleased with the torque.

 

What do regular TL's dyno stock? anyone know?

 

TLFourplay : Your car sounds great! You should be very happy with those numbers. I wonder what you would gain with the pro-cats?

 

i think he would get about 12 more WHP because of the following densitties of cats:
stock 1200
type s 600
e-shift 200

 

Were those pulls made in third gear or fourth??? Sounds like they were made in third........

 

4th gear. Made one in 3rd gear and didnt quite make what we made in 4th gear and then one in 5th gear...LOL.. Hit the top speed limiter of 150 on that run and once again didnt make as much as we made in 4th gear. So yeah.. 4th gear is the gear to dyno in in the TL.

 

You want to dyno any car in whatever gear is closest to 1:1 which fourth is the closest on the 6 sp tl's.

 

Whats closest on the 5AT?

ooooops that was a 5AT doh!

 

^^^^^nevermind me...............that was a 6MT!
so......what is the closest to 1:1 in the 5AT?

 

Damn that 3.5 sounds really good.

Nice numbers.

In the 5AT third is the closest to 1:1

 

those are excellent numbers for such few mods. i'd like to see you take the plunge w/ the procats. i think 275whp/250tq is well within reach with some minor boltons. good luck.

 

Yeah I am thinking hard on getting the procats, I would need someone to buy my cats off me though before I bought the procats, have someone lined up for em at least I mean. Really though being there behind the car in person was freakin awesome. The vids sound cool but rememebr it is just from my Sont digital camera, they do what it was really like no justice. I couldnt believe how loud it was, I have never heard it that loud before.

 

very impressive numbers!

 

Fourplay: for my baseline, keep in mind that my car is a 5at. I will have more driveline loss than you with the 6mt. Man those numbers are great. I had a 94 Formula back in college that I had to put a cam in it to get it to around 300 at the wheels. It's great that four door luxury cars are dynoing the same with some mods!

Great numbers!

 

Nice #'s.

 

MAN THAT SOUNDS GOOD???? I think its time for my mid muffler to go bye bye and put that dynomax reson on!!

 

nice... my dyno of my 3.5L auto ofcourse... http://public.fotki.com/typeR/typer/dsc00033.html
and time slip

http://public.fotki.com/typeR/typer/dsc00029.html

been to the track? ill bet you'll go mid 13's if you can pull off a low 2.1 or better 60

 

I'm sure he can hit that if you got the high-flow cats and comptech exhaust

 

nice.....tl looks good as well

 

man your car sounds awesome. I'd love to see the procats added

 

If I get the pro-cats I am getting the supercharger too. I dont know though, I kinda wanted to keep it naturally aspirated. I geuss I am considering two routes at this point.

N/A route: Pro-cats, bored out throttle body, extrude honed intake manifold (upper and lower), some sort of VTEC controller.

Boosted: pro-cats, comptech supercharger.

Either way I go I dont think I will get the opportunity to dyno it again cause I am moving to germany next month and they use the PS system instead of HP so I wouldnt even know if there would be a dyno available over there. Who knows.

What do you guys think?

 

I dont know a thing about germany, but theres gotta be some kind of conversion factor, so im sure there will be dyno's out there. They'll just be in a different language with different measurements.

 

Here is mine on a supercharged 5AT for comparison sake. 3.2 and not a 3.5 I would be very happy with you #'s. Especially the torque figure you pulled. Those 3.5's are obviously worth some extra torque #'s!!

 

yeah like I said they use the PS system instead of HP. I am sure there is a conversion.

 

A supercharged 3.5L should give some nice TQ number.

 

also look at the blown dyno the hp is pinned and torque not falling off at the top this is huge...20 -30 over the typeS if you could get another 500+ rpms out of the car it would even be better

 

Awesome! Thanks for the info on that!

 

wow very nice # congrats

 

Here is the thread of my 04 TL 6mt that I dynoed before my mods.

https://acurazine.com/forums/car-talk-5/anyone-have-experience-yoko-avs-es100-tires-151674/

 

Someone else will do that with a different car and different dyno. We need the same car dynoed on the same dyno to really compare. So we can't really say those mods gained that much of a difference since it will have so many different things between dynos.

 

Did your CAI come off of another car or did you buy it specifically for your S? I just traded in my 2004 for a 2007 TL-S and they told me the CAI wouldn't cross over...

 

They were not aware probably that is does in fact cross over and work on the TypeS just fine. It has been done several times by people here on the board....direct bolt on as I recall....same as 04-06 models.

 

Yes direct bolt on. I am pretty sure I was the first to do it, definitely the first on AZ. 04-06 3.2 is the one.
