Default just got back from the dyno

after about a month of having my new throttle body and plenum i decided to go to the dyno to check my air/fuel, and of course check out the gains. well before the tb & plenum i was putting down 238rwhp and i think 277rwtq. and today i put down 254rwhp and 302rwtq!
16rwhp gained and 24lbs of torque gained from the combo.

damn! i'm hoping for 30RWHP gained from tb/plenum myself. that's a nice bump for N/A.

yeah, i wasn't expecting that much of a gain. after installing it i felt a difference in accaeleration, but i didn't think it was that much.

well, when was the last time you had your car dyno'd? it's a tad bit cooler out right now. i put down 354RWHP on a hot, humid, summer day. i'd probably put down a tad more right now in winter.

Those are pretty good numbers from just minor bolts on. How was your air/fuel ratio?

it's at 13 on the chart. when we did the first run the air fuel was a little off, but not much. also before when i dynoed my car it was hot outside i'd say 90 degrees, so that probably does account for a couple hp, but nevertheless it's still a great gain.
