The car is running a stock exhaust with a cat but its running 2.5 inch piping. Everything else is stock however on a stage 1 kit with the intercooler upgrade. And this was on an MP3
Begi/FM -- Spool I.T.S. Dyno
- Thread starter BluMp3Turbo
- Start date
No problem Wshade
These dyno numbers are UNCORRECTED and are not smoothed out to give that extra hp. Here in florida we are at sea level. Also when the car was dynoed it was 80% humidity and 86 degrees outside.
Just as there are correction factors for alltitude there are also correction factors for temp, humidty ect .....we just dont apply them to our dyno runs.

One night...Mary mad a choice that wasn't right...
Well alright...she is a pretty girl but gutsy right...?
That's what we all say...
Oh! Sorry! Just on the Spool-Turbo site jammin to Mary.
Those are some impressive numbers son! You say you have the stock exhaust, but with 2.5 in piping? (huh) I definitely will be doing that upgrade!!! (thumb)

Our car's actually going on the dyno today with a 2.5" exhaust. We'll see how it does.

I'm not guessing at all 
Of course, our numbers will be corrected. It's 60 degrees cooler than it was the last time we dynoed the car. That's what happens when you live in a place that has weather
80F and 80% humidity are pretty close to the corrected conditions, but it's basically impossible to compare numbers from one dyno to another despite the correction attempts.

What time should I peek back in?

Keith@FP
Peek back in when we're done. The info will be on the FM Protege website once it's available. The amount of time it takes will depend on what we find and how many tech support calls we get

The humidity is a fair way out, and at 2000' of altitude you're getting some correction there as well. It depends on the ambient pressure.
It's been a point of contention in the automotive community for some time - how to deal with dyno correction especially with respect to altitude. Some folks don't run any correction at all, like Terry. Those folks also tend to live in places with very consistent conditions so it's not very necessary We use correction factors here at FM because it gives us the most consistent numbers despite our radically fluctuating conditions.
Can our numbers be directly compared to another dyno? Possibly not. Can they be used to measure our own progress? Definitely.

Sorry, Colorado is full. I believe there are openings in Utah.

Yeah we have a cold front moving in, the temp will drop to a chilly 59 degrees during the night time
