i think my car is haunted

ok i got intake, y pipe, bpipe as far as performance


ok about a couple months ago after i got a new tranny i dynoed to the wheel
run 1 169hp and 232 lbs/ft
run 2 170hp and 233 lbs/ft
run 3 170 hp and 233 lbs/ft

the numbers where off so i just though the dyno machine was messed up ..

a couple of weeks ago a go to another dyno place and dyno to the wheel
and i get 185hp and 234lbs/ft my second and highest run

now.. why the hell is my torque so high.. its weird ...

maybe i got a "special" car?

What gear are you dynoing in?

If you dyno in a lower gear than 4th gear your TQ will seem high and your HP will be lower.

Maybe it's a haunted tranny?

Seriously though, the tranny has some weird gearing then.

Dude, you got ripped off. Tell them to run it in the right gear next time. 1:1 is best in 3rd gear in your Auto.

Good luck in getting it done again free of charge.
