:iagree: At that time I was getting 6 whp & 9 lbs of torque. I kind of feel like I'm driving my 2002 Acura RSX Type S that I had, when I'm @ higher RPM's in my Nismo. In the Nismo I feel a boost once I go past 6k RPM's & in the RSX Type S the Vtec kicked in @ 5,500 plus RPM's. The Stillen Gen 3's are known to produce higher numbers @ higher RPM's.

I know for a fact this car can throw down better numbers than that, but it's all about getting the ECU familiar with the mods. I've been getting on her & opening her up, but I'm thinking about doing this a little more aggressively now. I'm thinking possibly of doing some quick sprints from 0-120 mph & 60-120 mph.

Holly smokes Batman.....that is pretty effen sweet. What mods does he have on his ride & is it a 370Z?

It's a bolt ons and tune g37, so pretty much the same car.

Damn.... I need to move quickly on having the numbers increase.....hehehehe. Overall I'm impressed & I love the sounds that is produced from the car, but things could be a little but better. In the end I need to be happy with what I have & not what I do not have.

Not sure what you're talking about but getting on a car does nothing. Nothing's going to change. The tune is the tune, period. During a motors break in, getting on it is great to properly seat the rings so the motor holds higher compression but this is done within the first 20 miles. You've missed that time frame by now.

Numbers aren't going to increase. I ******* hate mustangs. Someone's clearly ****** up the settings to make it read that low. Find a real dyno. Even then it's just numbers which no one cares about. The before and afters whats important and your trap speed at the drag strip. That's all.

This. Stop getting so caught up with #s. Trap speeds are a true way to tell how much power the cars making

That's for sure and numbers are just a sociological thing I guess. The shop mostly used the Mustang Dyno for Subaru's. I eventually need to hit up a Dynojet and see what my numbers are.

Your the second person that has mentioned trap speeds. This might be a silly question, but what exactly is trap speeds?

MacLean, don't u sleep man?? it's late!

Trap speed? like 1/4 mile times?

Not time. 1/4 time has nothing to do with it. Thats based off of a good start, great shifts, proper setup etc. Your trap is all about power.

Its at the 1/4 mile when you cross the finish line. See HP is fake. It's not real. It's just a calculation of TQ which is real and measurable but all dyno's can be messed with and read wrong. No matter how bad your 60 foot is at the drag strip, you'll still trap a certain speed at the end of the run within a mile per hour or two. Since we know the distance, we know your trap speed, and we need to know your cars weight; based off of that we will know your true HP since there's no way you could reach that mph within a 1/4 mile weighing 3xxx unless you have xxxHP. A dyno doesn't take into effect drag coefficient etc so running at the track gives you the best/true result of your power.

LMAO....... Psch sleep is overrated & there be plenty of sleeping when I'm dead. I went to midnight mass & it lasted a good hr & half, then I had maybe a 40 min drive back home. Why are you up so early making a post or posts?


Nice write up on the explanation of trap speed & I appreciate it. Oh Merry Christmas everyone.

I was gonna say somethign in teh line of 1/4 mile run has many veriables. Good launch, better tires, good shifts.. ect.. like you said.

I work nights.. 12hr sifts.. Hell, I'm working now. The sick don't have holidays.

It's all good.

Work it boy....hehehehe. That kind of sucks and that is so true.

WOWWWWWWWWWWW so mean and so sexy.
