Great numbers! Nice flat curve and no drop off.

FWIW the lights mean nothing. The Speedo will recover in the 2nd or third run but the lights are suppose to come on. It hurts nothing and clears when you drive out. Try it next time. I have only run a few hundred this way

Stephen thanks. I will try again next time. Will the car run fine with the lights on or do I need to do few runs beforehand? Thanks,Kevin

I wondered about that and knew the good doctor may have a cure.

Very cool that the dyno guy is a 6speeder with a 996TT.

Very standup guy. I was impressed. You find 6speeders in the strangest places... Heck there may be some in MN. Kevin

Guys like Kevin should be commended. He goes out on his personal time and money, runs his car at the track, downloads timeslips, runs his car on GPS, downloads the data, runs his car on the dyno, posts the data. All so we can gain knowledge about what these cars are capable of when properly modified. Hats off to you my friend, you're a true gentlemen. Congratulations!

Still cant believe there is more to come.... bring on the 1320' file Kevin

Kevin,

Are you ready for this?


I just inputted your trap speed and weight into my buddy's Trap Speed to WHP calculator for a comparison, and look what I came up with (I assumed 3,600 lbs with driver for your car). Within 1 hp of your Mustang dyno numbers.


whp = wt. x (trap/234)^3/(1.057-(A/100,000)^3

Variable A: (128.2/234) cubed, x 3,600 lbs = 591.48
Variable B: (1.057-[591.48/100,000]) cubed = 1.1612


Var A (591.48/ Var B (1.1612) = 509 whp
