Good numbers.

 

ZR700? So you're using a drivetrain loss of 17%?

This is only a gain of 60 hp over stock (less than 10% increase).... how much does this kit cost?

 

17% loss is way to high for that car.

 

Usual calculated loss is 12-13%. Which works out to about 668 hp with a 13% loss, still not a bad increase. I'm sure there is still quite a bit more in it.

 

15% to 17% should be right on the money. Gain with the numbers across the curve look great.

 

Based on what? We aren't talking about a Turbo 400 tranny here.

The stock dyno #s I have seen are falling between 560 and 570 at the rear wheels. That puts loss between 11-13%.

 

there is a lot less loss with the rear mounted tranny the vettes have. 10-13% sounds very accurate.

 

This is just the low-avg numbers from their dyno pulls. It's called marketing... underadvertise, overperform.

Hennessey, what kind of numbers are coming from the LS9 Camaro y'all got?

 

 

Which dyno? I haven't seen numbers that high.

 

Here's a quick list of some search results. I have seen anywhere from 530s to 570s, but more in the upper part of that range it seems.

Bottom line, no matter what the varying numbers are, 17% drivetrain loss on a newer manual tranny is exaggerated.

Dyno-jet
12.3% loss on this one.
These guys said they just tinkered with it, no add-on parts or anything

 

I still think 15% is right on the money in my opinion. Viarable 2% might be the cars are running a bit rich. I have yet to see stock numbers over 550. (520 to 540s). Getting ready to check all your threads out though. From what I have read... tinkered with it isn't showing SAE engine dyno through the wheels on a Dyno Jet. They're hitting the street a bit rich so tinkering could be, adding a couple degrees and leaning it out and getting a quick 40 to the wheels. Perfect example based off what your saying is this thread... 581, MODDED puts the cars at your stated DT loss.
