Tossed the MS3 on the dyno on Saturday.

[ill_eagle94]

255 whp and 267 tq. Lower than I expected but after all, they're just numbers. MPH at the track is what matters to me in making power. That and what I can hang with on the highway. Once I get quicktime pro up and running I will edit down the first video I have of me spinning on the dyno lol. That and I gotta scan the chart.

EDIT: Runs were done in 4th and the dyno is a Dyno Jet 224.

Do you have a baseline? Because you're right, they're just #s.

 

[ZyrehT]

Your TMIC can't cool properly with the hood up, add a few hp for that.

 

[ymic]

Your TMIC can't cool properly AT ALL

I think you made a typo ;-)


On topic:

My baseline dyno in 4th was 240hp / 250tq, only mod was cobb sri, and a big ass fan on the horrible intercooler

 

[FrequentFlyer]

Looking at your best trap speed, almost 106mph, you should be closer to at least 275whp.

I know, but the fan they had didn't really blow much air. That and I had to pull the shroud to get an RPM signal.

I had my Speed3 dyno'd at Performance Dyno back in April.

HP:257.70
Torque: 263.11

Stock I dyno'd at those numbers... It was at 0% humidity and it was 70 outside, I had a friend hold the fan about a foot away from the TMIC. Maybe I got a few lucky runs, hopefully I'll get to redyno w/ a CS test pipe and Cobb SRI.

And what had you done to her at that point?

 

[PCspeed3]

the easiest was is to strap one of those 3' by 3' square fans to the TMIC. Then have a fan in front.

 

[BSTD3]

And what had you done to her at that point?

MS CAI and MS CBE

Since then added SU test pipe, (not that these matter: SU engine mounts, TurboSmart BPV)

Should get it re-dyno'd at Performance Dyno. Had it dyno'd at Holyroller Dyno with a Dynapack.

 

[xtrememps]

I'd just ice my tmic...but my car is stock so I wouldn't waste my money dyno'ing.

The purpose of a dyno is to 'try' and obtain realistic conditions to get a real hp number.

a box fan on the TMIC or a blower in the front would simulate realistic driving conditions better.

Also, water would get all over the place and get messy.

 

[xtrememps]

Um, I thought the purpose of dynos was to make your e-peen bigger? hehe j/k

But seriously if the cooling fan was lacking there I'd rather try and err on the side of more HP. Besides, when I take my MS3 to the track in the spring I'll ice it up between runs. And water? Use a bag lol

Humor does not go well over the internets unless you use a stupid amount of smilies.

How did you manage to get an appointment with Giles? I hear they are always booked and noone can get in there. What did you dyno on the hub dyno?

 

[BSTD3]

I dyno'd twice at Holyroller. I just dropped Giles an email and he scheduled me in. I was just there this past Sat when a friend of mine dyno'd his Mazda3.

Results here:

HP: 324*
Torque: 349*

*This is after adding the SU test pipe

 

[ill_eagle94]

Cool man. What did Giles charge?

 

[H3br3w_Ham3r]

I put the car (stock) on a Mustang dyno and got 200hp and 210 tq at the wheels. Corrected for a Dyno jet I would be getting 225hp 235tq to the wheels. This was without any sort of fan.(screwy)

 

[BSTD3]

Cool man. What did Giles charge?

He charges $75 for the run. He does the driver's seat but does multiple runs and explains what he is seeing with printouts.
