I just dynoed my AE. I have no Performance mods yet, waiting on everything to come in, but i dynoed at 159.9 HP and 187.9 for the torque. I hope that is average, if not plese let me know.

Thanks,
Josh

 

Looks on the low side of average (for an auto). Most cars bring in 160-190. Near 190 for the manual folks.

 

How many miles do you have on your car? And when's the last time you did any maintenance? Peace_

 

It is a five speed, and it was a little shop. That is the first time Ive ever been to dyno, and they had a big industrial fan blowing in front of the car. Did that play a factor maybe?

 

I wouldn't worry about the dyno, could be lots of reasons.

Do you have aftermarket wheels, is the dyno calibrated, did you adjust for standard temp and pressure, do you need to change your oil or have a heavier weight, and so on.

 

Nah. The factor would've been what gear you did it in The fan is there to try to replicate highway cooling. Peace_

 

I just had the oil changed but I do have 18's (235/40/18). I havent had any service besides oil change. I just hit 50k on the speedo. The dyno shop mainly deals with Porsche and and Porsche race cars. I guess it is calibrated, I dont know.

 

Ouch I got 175 on my 2k auto with an intake and muffler...

 

she told me to punch it at 3k rpm and I was in 4th gear

 

5 speeds dyno in 3rd gear...thats where the ratio is closer to 1:1

 

3rd gear, maybe thats why it wasnt that good. After I get my intake, exhaust and pulley on I will go back and dyno in 3rd gear. Maybe once in 4th just to see the difference from today. Thanks for all the input.

You never cease to amaze me. Where do you brew up this false information?
3rd gear has a 1.272 gear ratio and 4th has 0.954. According to my math, i would think 4th is closer to 1:1 ratio. But maybe in igorworld 1.272 is actually closer to 1:1.



4th was the correct gear to dyno in. Only reason people dyno in 3rd is to not put so much load on the car through multiple runs on the dyno. No need to run it in 4th while tuning. You can do all the tuning in the world on the lower gears, and then make some final runs in 4th to get your most accuarate #s.

From all the info I say it may have been the tire/wheel combo.

Next time if you have the stock wheels swap them on the front and see if this changes your numbers.

 

This kinda makes me feel good about my 228 numbers.

I think I will try this next time, and aftet the mods go on.

Thanks
Josh

 

I dynoed my 01 GXE 5spd STOCK with stock steel 15" wheels and hubcaps on it at 194.5WHP and torque I don't remember. I dynoed mine ona DynoJet, U sure they didn't use a Mustang Dyno ? Or Dynapack ? The type of Dyno they use makes the BIGGEST Diff. I try to stick to DynoJets.

 

I dont know what kind of dyno it was, but I will find out

 

If thats on a dynojet, your VIS probably isn't working.

He has a 2001 01's have the 3.0 engine

 

Duh, and so does my car

--Don

 

228WHP ? dyno sheet please and mods.

 

maybe his 260hp accord 6spd with roughly 15% drivetrain loss?
260 - 39 = 221 whp

 

Its an Accord not a Maxima.

cai and catback

Accords are 240, not 260

you must have the strongest 00-01 ever. I have seen dozens of dynos and fully modded 00-01's aren't even seeing that high of numbers 5spd or Auto. Is the dyno sheet available?

 

She told me its Dynojet 248. I know nothing about the differnt kinds of dyno. I assumed they were all the same, but I guess this one is good, right?

 

Too bad there is something blantly wrong with his car.

Let the dyno races begin!!

 

Come on now, dont tell me there is something wrong with my car. Im gonna get all paranoid about it now. Is the fact that my car is Cali spec holding it back any?

 

Where did you dyno at?

The shop I dyno'd at only messed with BMW's

I dyno'd like 175hp with a stillen intake and stillen muffler.

 

I dynoed at air cooled classics in Knoxville, TN. They deal mainly with Porche and porches set up for race only. I have no performance mods yet, just wanted to see where I was before anything goes on. I just thought it was a little low. But maybe its beacause of the cali emissions. Just a thought.

 

Read what this guy said, he might be on to something.

Dynojet 248C is the dyno I do my tuning on, its a awesome dyno, and if its calibrated right it should post the same #s within like 5HP no matter if U are in NYC or SoCal. Do U know the settings they used on the dyno ? it should say right on your print out, when does the HP curve start to drop ? without the VIS the engine will stop pulling around 5000RPM, and power will start to tapper off.
