DYNO : Orange Maxima
because i search and i get only on was stock and he get 227 hp
about the modifying that on the car i cant say it because there are so many sick people want to know it and after that they will say your car not stock your car modifying your car your car ... lub lub lub
coming soon .. i will fix a headers and we will see if it good or not
more accurately i think he's the first person ever to figure out how to get max WHP readings from the CVT. nobody else from vendors all the way to including several Uprev tuners who specialize in Nissan/Infiniti have figured that out.
OP - what's your secret to locking the car in gear for the dyno? you do anything special? ive hit the dyno before and everytime we tried to get max WHP readings the dyno chart ended up looking ridiculous and wouldn't lock in gear. removing the ABS fuse helped a little but it still wasn't right.

yep .. 
because the stock maxima have 290hp on the engine
maybe my car have between 310 - 330 in engine
dont tell me i am the first one .. i think there are more than 20 one who modifying the maxima and get more then me !!
but i think they want to post it .. so lets see if any one get more than 271 hp
and sorry i dont under stand u cuz my inglish not mach good
(( what's your secret to locking the car in gear for the dyno? you do anything special ))
can u more explane it

I want to figure this out also. have a dyno day coming up at my local tuning shop and i would love to actually be able to participate.
Maxima 35- did you keep the car in D while dynoing the car? or did you run it in DS or M? also have you removed any sensors or fuses?
To everyone that's asking if he did anything special, I highly doubt it. I have listened to the video numerous times and you can tell the car shifts atleast once. I want to say its on DS mode as it holds the ratio longer, but he puts it in the gear ratio he wants (you can tell in the video) then he gradually accelerate fast to where it still doesn't "downshift" on him...

its possible the OP has no idea what the shop did, but they had to do something to achieve a normal dyno pull that nobody else has been able to achieve since the car doesn't lock in gear. im just waiting till the older gen Maximas see this thread, it will get interesting since Darren Surratt built his 5.7 gen with our motor and (accurately) heralded it as the only 2009+ Maxima motor that we can see actual dyno pulls/gains on since it's attached to a manual transmission.

im one of the few thats been to the dyno with my Max, you have to do something special or the car starts downshifting and all kinds of fun stuff when you red-line it. this is why CVT dyno graphs look like earthquake seismographs, they can't lock it in gear. this is why most people's CVT dyno graphs also show a "max WHP" of around 200-something, because after that the dyno results go nuts and are not-repeatable. unless you can do the same pull back to back and have it overlay almost identically to the previous its irrelevant.

I hate to be the Realist, but even if the OP knew how to do what was done, he probly couldnt explain it to us. Like for example, this reply below, I tried deciphering it.
"about the modifying that on the car i cant say it because there are so many sick people want to know it and after that they will say your car not stock your car modifying your car your car ... lub lub lub"
Not bashing on the OP, I give him props for what he accomplished.

now if the Uprev tune lets you re-map the shift points on the car, you could re-map it so it holds 2nd or 3rd gear, get your max WHP, then re-map it for driving conditions. that is if the Uprev allows you to re-map shift points
So basically special software is needed for CVT's? since they are new with how fast software is designed there should be such software before the next gen. Probably have the car while on dyno send shift points real time? or set the software to the tranny version.. etc etc. I'm just throwing this out there cause i'm more into software than cars

well the Uprev tune is done with special software; you have a laptop connect to your car with a USB device and it re-programs it directly from the computer. from what i understand you can raise the speed limiter, change the rpm limiter (red-line), obviously adjust a/f ratio and ignition timing, and maybe (hopefully) adjust shift points? if thats true you can just set the shift point of 3rd gear to 7500 or somethin and just dont be stupid, hold it at exactly 7200 and that should be at least similar to a manual pull in a certain gear i'm guessing. ive always been curious what my max WHP is i just gave up on trying to find it a long time ago; now im pumped again.
I'm not convinced, particularly considering this is not a load bearing pull. The OP doesn't specify anything relevant regarding effective gear calculations, correction, or if/how the TCM was tricked to hold a specified ratio. Further, look at the AFR. I don't think so. What kind of dyno software is this? Never seen it before.

With you on that one to bad the Car, is in another Country....
I want to help but plz find to me some on to Translates my words and Translates yous Questions ...
what mean (( OP ))
I try to help ...
yep at the weels 271.2
I understand from your words that how i dyno it ..
you can dyno it on " d " mode but it will be not a correct number .. you should dyno is in " M " manual mode to find the correct number
you can know your hp number when the RPM 6200 on the 4th gear
NOTE :
I read before that the US gear different than Mideast gear
my first gear from 0 to 90
my second gear from 90 to 120
my third gear from 120 to 150
my forth gear from 140 to 175
my fifth gear from 175 to 220
my sixth gear from 220 to 255
NOTE2 : I cant do the 255 with Manual mode it should be D mode
I mean the i dont use the fifth and the sixth gear on manual mode When I race some one its should in D mode
you should do it in a manual to get an Exact number .. but in D mode you will get more power
as example if I get 271 HP in manual mode that mean when i race some one i will use the D mode that mean i will get more than 271 but on CVT we cant know the number on D mode .. I hope every one can understand me
the 290 in the engine
the 271 on the weels
the best way to know your correct hp use the M mode
and there are nothing to remove it
I will try to help you more
I can send for any one the full video if it will help you ?
and the car dyninig in M manual mode
about the :
- headers : am searching now and maybe i will make custom one
- Y pipe : already I have
- single exhaust : I think its not good idea
thnx bro
did any one get some one speak arabic ??
I think there are so many Arabic people study in US ??

Maxima35, thanks for trying to answer all of our questions. We are all very interested in the way you did your dyno for your car. You are the only person so far to perform a dyno that looks accurate. We want to know all of the details so that we can do the same thing with or cars!
If you have a full video that isn't edited together, we would love to see that! Please share it!
Also, how many times have you put your car on a dyno? Have you been able to get the same results each time, or did this good dyno with 271 hp only happen one time?

there is some one from KSA dyno his car on same the dyno i use it
about the full video I will try to upload it when I back to home cuz I am in my work now
I put my maxima on dyno 4 times (( after I tuned it )) first time i get 263 hp than the tunner fix some thing he say there is a problem on my exzoust and after that I get 270 after that he try to get more and i get 271.1 and we try more but its tha max hp 271
I understand only the first Q that mean you need a full video with out any edit .. and soon i will upload it

interesting. everytime we tried D, Ds, or Manual mode it would shift to the next gear automatically. when i go to do my uprev tune ill try holding it at 6200 rpms in 4th as you suggested - thanks for the tips! nice car!
and there is some thing it will be more interesting for all and I am waiting it also , he want remove the lock that on CVT gear to get as example (( RPM 7000 OR 7500 OR 8000 )) that mean our RPM will go to red Line

so i am say the power of CVT will coming soon at leas 280HP on weel
we all wating . . .

the dyno that i was dyno my car . . . http://www.youtube.com/user/PowerMakerDyno

Again he is not trying to convince us, he was simply sharing... There is a language barrier that prevents US from understanding. It is possible, and most certain that in other parts if the world tuners have invested more time and money tuning the Maxima, which is evident by the limited number of parts for our vehicles, available in the states. While I envy your setup, there are plenty of different, softwares, tuners, and facilities that not restricted by the our country's different emission guidelines...that I am sure you and I both have not seen...
