Just had my car up on a Dynapack chassis dyno (wheels come off, hooks directly to the car's hubs):
127.4 hp
142.2 lbft torque
I'm VERY pleased with the torque figures, but the hp numbers seem to be more than just a bit off. The engine's hp/torque numbers should be running pretty close, but a 15 hp difference tells me something might not be right here.
I went with AutoOutcast, and his hp vs. torque numbers seem to be off as well (116.8 hp/134.3 tq.- modded ztec). This seems to be raising a few eyebrows on his thread as well ...
place your bets now!
So because of what AutoOutcast got, I am pretty sure that it is not my car. Anyone know anything about the "Dynapack" chassis Dyno? Is this a common result with their equipment?
I mean, ZX3chick made 129 hp/134 lbft torque on her stock ST. Now that's much more normal of a difference between hp/torque than with my result of 127/142.
Chime in peeps! Give me a hint as to what might be up with mine and AuotOutcast's dyno numbers!
(BTW, can't say enough good things about the people at SynapseMotorsport. They were pleasant, helpful, and professional!)
