so my buddy got his evo X tuned at mac autosports yesterday. can you guys please let me know what you think about his peak wheel hp/tq (344/349) figures? thanks in advance!! sorry about the crappy pic!!

 

thats pretty good.... I guess we cant really say anything we dont know what mods he has done!! give us a mod list

 

thanks for your response. that was really dumb on my part, not listing the mods! anyway, he has:
HKS turbo back with Speed Circuit test pipe
HKS digital boost controller
HKS wastegate actuator
Injen CAI
TWM Performance Short Shifter
AMI Customs a-pillar Triple Gauge pod with AEM gauges

 

Do you know what a stock Evo 10 puts down on that dyno? Do you have a baseline dyno for this car?

 

i'm sorry i don't, but don't quote me on this, my friend said that the baseline was 280 awhp. i guess stock 218-232 (20-25% transmission loss) and his gains from the mods could put him at a 280, i'm not sure !!

 

found this for you:

It doesn't work like that you can't go comparing dyno numbers from dyno to dyno. Maybe things have changed but I dynoed my stock STi on that dyno and made 260whp IIRC.

 

So are you saying that whp/wtq numbers vary from dyno to dyno and so we shouldn't compare numbers from one dyno to another?

 

What tuning device was used on this run?

 

Absolutely. That's why people frequently ask what a stock X puts down on the dyno whenever somebody posts sheets. The dyno that I'm tuned on is a heart breaker, with a stock X at 215. Some dynos read 260+ for the same car.

Dynojets are factory calibrated and tend to be pretty close to other Dynojets. 340 is good for a pump gas tune on the stock turbo. You can get into the 390's with E85 or meth but that's where the stock turbo runs out of breath.

 

Just FYI the dyno sheet shows 1.21 Correction Factor

Way high!

 

Mac is @ 5500 Feet

 

^What does that mean? I know MAC is at elevation. I understand the use of correction factors but it still seems quite inflated. No intercooler piping, no FMIC, restrictive exhaust and making near 350whp? Not possible.

 

Sae correction is what mac uses
Sae uses elevation as a compensation

People are getting confused by DG. And their user adjustable "correction factor"

Dynojets can't be user adjusted, their weather station and baro sensors are what controls the correction factor

Being 5500 ft above sealevel
will kill hp and the sae correction helps balance that. It is better for na cars but it is what it is.

I have tuned cars @ mac and the sae does put it a bit high 1.15 would be a bit better
