Finally Dynoed my car

Did 2 runs. they were really close to each other. MAX HP=220.7 MAX Torque=229.5. Outside temp was around 72. Do these look like good numbers for having just an intake and exhaust?

Nice numbers...are those SAE corrected?

Side note...do you have any pictures, from a distance, with the Stillen rear valence and the stock sides/front? I am thinking of doing that exact setup. I cant really tell from the pictures on your cardomain page.

Thanks,
Brian

these are SAE numbers. I don't have pictures yet, but hopefully soon. It looks really nice with stock sides (my opinion).

Yeah thats about 5 more hp that normal for just intake and exhaust. But your baseline could have been 5 more than some. How does the exhaust combo sound? Quiet or loud? I am still trying to decide on what to use.

it is very quiet. just a little bit louder over stock. I love it.

Those are very good #'s. I have simalar mods to you plus a useless RT cat and I got 215 fwhp. Uncorrected I put down 222 FWHP in 55 degree weather(.97 CF). Next time I get dynoed I plan on seeing 230+ FWHP

Does your power drop off at around 5800 RPM or does it peak at 6100 RPM? I would love to see a dyno chart.

I too have the useless RT cat, 0 hp gain on stock exhaust for $200 .

Am I going to be the first to dyno a 2K2 with the UR UDP??

GregP did but his #'s where not SAE corrected so they are not 100% accurate. He did show good gains with it.

I will post a dyno chart as soon as I get it scanned in. I don't have it with me right now, so I can't tell about power drop off.

nice numbers! for some reason i still have the most hp on a 2k2 that has been dynoed. 230hp 234tq and that was just with a franken intake, HKS rear section and RT cat. 2 days ago i got a 2.5" b-pipe made. i feel a noticable difference in top end power but a small loss in torque. i also now have no cat ( stock 2k max cat gutted) and no resonator on my b-pipe! i just might go dyno today to see if it was worth the 100 bucks i spent for the b-pipe!

hey guys sorry it took so long! yesterday after the dyno my grandpa wanted me to look at altimas for him b/c his cadilac has about had it! i went to nissan and we got a great deal and he bought the car that night! they drove to his house and signed everything! the funny thing is that my grandpa had never seen the car until we pulled up in his driveway! he loves it! i know he should have gotten a max but hey he is older and didnt want to spend 30k on a car that he will only be driving 3,000 miles a year in! i got home and the internet was down! so the results r as follows!

new dyno:
max hp: 228.5
max tq: 236.5


old dyno:
max hp: 230.8
max tq: 234

as u can see from my previous dyno i lost 2 hp and gained 2 ft/lbs! that was with the addition of a 2.5" b-pipe and a gutted cat! i was disapointed until i remembered that i had my konigs on for the last dyno and recently just put my stock wheel back on! my conclusion is that our cars like a little back pressure but not too much! i am puttin my high flow cat back on and my konigs in the front and im gonna go dyno again! i am gonna try to get the shop to change out my cat, switch the wheels and do some trial and error runs! i would like to know which rim and which exhaust set up will give me my maximum performance! this dyno wasnt comparing apples to apples so this info cant be drectly compared to the other dyno! i am still gald to know that i am close to the 230 mark for hp and over the mid 230's for tq!!

So at the time of your original Dyno, the only performance mods you had were the FC Intake, and the HKS Rear section?

What is the P/N on that HKS Rear section, I can't seem to find squat on their site...

i have no clue! go to www.eatricezone.com and look! i had the FC intake, HKS, and RT high flow cat w/ my 17x7 konig imagines. the new run i have HKS, FC intake, NO cat, and 2.5" b-pipe w/ STOCK wheels! i need a scale to weight each rim!!!!
