Default New Dyno Numbers Are In!

So today we had a dyno day with the shop that ran my original dyno four weeks ago. On that day, it was 89 degrees and humidity was at 110%, and I made a respectable 303/318 to the rear wheels, with my one problem being that I re-used the factory H pipe and connected it to the long tubes, which is 2 1/4" instead of the 2.5" I should have. Today, at 94 degrees and with the humidity at 110% and with the addition of my new X-pipe with dumped M-80s right before the rear axle, I pulled off 306/291 on the first pull, 323/301 on the second pull, and when they finally got the converter locked in, I made a crazy 331/336 to the rear wheels! In an automatic! I'm so happy lol

lol check forecsasts for anywhere in south florida, the humidity in the southern half of florida is typically over 100% from june through early ocotober, it's so humid down here most of the time that if you go outside in a tanktop and shorts, I promise you, you WILL be drenched if you're in the sun for more than five minutes or wet spots all over your clothes after two minutes lol. Crazy s*** isn't it?!

http://www.wunderground.com/history/...q_statename=NA

i didnt think it could get above 100% humidity...unless you are being exaggerative like saying "way to give it 110%". i live in houston, so i know what humidity is, but it usually stays around 85-95% around summer time.

either way, those are GREAT numbers, especially to be pulled in this heat and with so little mods. I had all your mods and then some and the best i ever did was 325whp/341tq. its a little higher now though, lol

Yup you're right I checked again... it was one of those "feels like" readings on the morning news, it was really in the 90s for humidity
