a 37.7 whp gain is impressive! i wonder what the cobb will give us in addition to these gains as a stage 2 tune...

Anyone know the correct method for 'back-calculating' your whp to figure out what you're getting at the crank?

my car made 254.2 fly wheel is rated at 332
that is 23.5% drivetrain loss!!! take that into account on Ben's car and you get 381.3 fly wheel hp!!!!!!!!! that is freaking nuts! *Note* I hope my math is right |

if we take jyhighsky's numbers my car would have made rwhp (275 hp), fly wheel (332)
Ben's car would have made fly wheel (381.3), rwhp (315.86 hp)! this is at 17.16% drivetrain loss |

My calculations came out the same. But I wanted to check with the rest of you guys because I just sat there thinking 'naw, that can't be right. too good to be true!' LOL

Uggg, dont be obsessed with numbers! Your numbers look just fine for a dyno that puts a load on the car, and its more ACCURATE than a dynojet. Now, if Dyno Dynamics dyno's dont put a load on the car, then its probably not nearly as good of numbers lol.

Just found this. They also got 256 whp (same as RCZ's baseline), but it's a 7AT! Not sure what kind of dyno that is.
Edit: Found some more info. That's the Superflow AutoDyn 30 chassis dyno at Technosquare.

No. Well, it's not the same brand. I don't know if it's similar in its numbers though. Interestingly, they got the same baseline as bullitt did. But the car in this video is 7AT, and bullitt's is 6MT.

FYI - Doug Stewart (of crawford) used the figure of 17% for drivetrain loss(6MT), at least when using his local dynojet in nashville. I think that 17% is pretty close.
This was for the VQ35DE models. I can't imagine the efficiency of the drivetrain changing that much over the past couple of years, so I'd stick with the 17% figure for now. |
