Dyno Results
I have 2000 GT and had it dynoed on a DYNOmite dyno. It put down a disappointing 202 hp and 239 ft lb. I have a Diablo Hard chip so I ran it once with chip on and twice with it off. I actually lost 2 hp and 2 ft lb with the chip on. Money well spent, i think not. It maybe worth it if you have a tune done and are going to equip a supercharger or turbos, other than that I dont see the point
What do you all think of that?

RE: Dyno Results
haha where are all you guys getting your guesses? If he's auto there's nothing wrong with his car. take 20-25% drivetrain loss and that's about 60ish HP. so yes, to the rear wheels he's pretty much right.
And tune on a lightly modified car isn't worth it at all. Around here i think it's about $400 for a tune. He might gain about 5hp out of an all out tune on a stock car.

A good tune will benefit your car regardless of what mods you have. The stock tune is set up for emissions and miles per gallon, not performance.

RE: Dyno Results
hah i still don't understand why you guys think this is out of the normal. that's a pretty typical number if he's a bone stock auto. i dynoed 185rwhp and i had about 225ish hp maybe. so i lost about 50 to the wheels, and i'm auto.

Check your math.
