Well i went with my local club for a Dyno Day @ Church Automotive on Saturday.
I was a little impressed with the numbers, but then again, numbers seem to be very dyno-type specific.
So i wont really know true gain numbers till i start going in for additional dyno's after i do a bit more work on mah car. Keep in mind, i will be staying relatively conservative since its my DD, but do like to eek a bit more power out of it.
Here is the best pull i had that day, they did 4-5 for me.
Here's a little clip of my car on the dynapaks. Stock exhaust at high RPM sounds like a leafblower! haha

So the main thing that impressed me was the difference i had compared to a stock MS6 ran his Dyno just before me, only thing different from stock was upgraded plugs... His best pull was 250 awhp @ 291 torque. Not bad for stock yey? Only 8% drivetrain loss is interesting... usually its like 20%-ish!
From the graph you can see my best was 267 awhp @ 305 torque (at the hub)!!! Pretty nice gains over stock for very minimal performance mods... CAI/bpv/grounding kit, thas all!
Mind you, after the first two pulls, they dump about a gallon of water on the I/C since it was pretty damn hot in the sun that day, which my car had been sitting in for 2+ hrs. So the gains from my worst to best are slightly inconsistant, but then again they can never replicate exactly how much air our cars get when at speed/freeway.
only thing i was kinda curious about is my AFR. It shouldnt be a steady decline like mine showed. It SHOULD be a sudden drop and then consistent levels when he went WOT. I guess he didnt truely go wide open throttle? *shrug*
Next step is TIP, then upgraded plugs, then... thinkin of doing more suspension.
Performance wise, on a conservative level to squeeze out a couple more HP, what yall think is a good next step... not counting exhaust... DP, CBE plans are for next year.
cheers!
