I think everybody had at least one sort of mod on their car. I think one of the guys who only had a CatBack exhaust ran 208 HP to the wheels. Thats the closest I think we had to stock. Sorry

I talk to Kyle (owner of the dyno) and he said that most stock Evos were coming in about 210-215 whp.

This was on a dynapack? I figured most of the stock Evos would be running around the 230ish area? Glad you all had a good time though.

actually, if you multiply the whp by 1.25 (to account for drivetrain loss), you get close to the factory rating for hp at the crank. 230-240 whp is what I would expect on a dynojet, which tends to read higher.

I don't know anything about dyno's I just figured since it was a dynapack it would be higher numbers because you are eliminating the rolling resistance of the tire.

The dynapak dyno is pretty much the cadillac of dyno's! True load bearing via an absolute known measurement method.. Hydrolics. I have found that the Dynapak tends to read higher then normal roller based dynos because the dynapak actually loads the car down properly. You will build full boost and hold it all the way through. Yep.. The dynapak is an awesome tool for tuning!! Glad everything went good guys!

I think that the guy that was driving our cars at Axiom didn't know our cars well enough to dyno them. I think that the HP was off, to be honest with you. It is messed up that we weren't able to drive/dyno our own cars, especially when we know our own rides the best. Oh well though, looks like I won't ever dyno my cars there again.

I mean, our 2nd gen Eclipse runs a 12.9 on the 1/4 mile drag and it only got 264 to the wheel when they dyno'ed it at Axiom. Doesn't that seem a little low???? I don't know...

No dyno shop is going to let you operate your car on the dyno due to liability. The numbers that the dyno produces are meaningless unless you have a baseline. If you guys wanted posing numbers then go find a dynojet.

It was the first time that we dyno'ed the 2g... I have went to places to where ppl get to dyno their own motorcycle and I have friends that let have said that they have went to places where they got to dyno their own ride... This is a first experience for me, so I didn't know what to expect.

my car ran a 12.59 and came in @ 300 whp on that dyno, so your numbers are right in line i think. again, this dyno reads low, but so does Vishnu's. it's only a reference so that you can compare the next time you tune on the same dyno.
i've been to other dynos like FAME in Redmond and Matrix in Portland and neither of those places let you drive your own car either.
