Dyno Numbers seem low?

[c0ncEpT]

95% of mustang dynos are stingy. If you put that car on Sean Collin's dyno I will promise it doesn't make more than 360.

Nothing is wrong with your car. That graph looks perfect. Power/torque come on early and it holds it all the way to 6600 RPM. Should be a fun street car.

Bring it to the dyno day. Jakes dyno reads like any other egojet. My car with headers only made 319 threw an auto on it.

Vector's dyno is known for being a ball buster.

Dr. Phil tuned it and ran it on the Dyno at Jake's for me just so I could have a number

Vectors dyno is for sure a low number reader my cusion found that out and the tune was a bit week hell they didn't have the plug gap rite kept blowing the spark out when floored we. Titend the gap a bam it was better his car is a turbo car it. Took them 30 min to tune the car I m positive that the tune is not up to par he is a 100 horse off of were he should be he is makeing NA power .

If your cousin isn't happy with the tune, he should speak up and call Vector. I'm 100% confident that Steve and Kurt will take care of him. There was a thread on LS1Tech asking who people like in the Metro Detroit area for tuning and out of all the responses both positive and negative for all the shops in the area, any negative post about Vector was soon followed up with an update that Vector reached out to them and adjusted the tunes to the owner's satisfaction. They take care of their customers.

vector(mustang dyno's) arent low. they are just "more correct"

[97firehawk]

He did call them and they kept blowing him off. And stoped answering the phone when he would call cus id call rite after he did and they would answer me. He spent. 11 grand there and they treated him like crap I looked at. The price brake down and they over charged him big time on several things I am disapointed in there customer service. And mustang dynos are low compared to a dyno jet but more accurate .

I'm sure they are more correct but I was just wondering why my numbers where so much lower then most with similar mods

Steve did a great job tuning my car this time I couldn't be happier with it runs great.

.....I don't think I tuned the car your speaking of, but I'll tell you this if Kirk or I tuned it and your not satsfied I'll stay on it until you are. Kirk is no longer with Vector Motorsports but as I've stated whatever it takes to make it right I will do it.

Larry is right, Mustang Dynos are the most accurate way to measue Hp/Tq but its a tuning tool, thats it. The biggest difference Ive seen between Mustang and Dyno Jets are on FI cars. Example, 08 G8 procharged made 440rwhp and 400TQ on Vector's dyno, took the same car to a local dyno jet and made 490rwhp and 478rwtq.

Now, on the flipside of that I've tuned N/A cars that make 420's rwhp on Vector's dyno and they go to a dyno jet and make around 10 more hp.

The problem with a dynojet is they back calculate TQ. HP is a calulation using TQ and RPM, so if you have a car that makes a lot of TQ the numbers will show much higher.

Steve has always treated me right. Never had an issue with a tune, and im positive that if I did he would be more than willing to stand behind it and fix it (this cant be said for many others)


Shot ya an email as well yesterday, Steve.

Thank you for a response. I will let him no that you said this and see what he says. I think it was kurt that he was dealing with. He has just added a meth kit and a MSD boost timing retard systom and he has been looking around for a new tune cus it has been kind iffy. I mean the car is fast but my car is a NA car and just as fast well I have a thousand pound less but still. And when you nail it the engine would shut off so u had to roll into the throttle we closed the plug gap and that made a huge difference but still. Think that there is more that needs to be done its a pretty well built 383 lt1 with a rear mount turbo in an impala SS its a 96 .

They seem pretty spot on for a MD. I wouldn't worry too much about it. A FAST intake could do you some good with that cam and those heads

Well I went to the track this weekend and got one pass in before I broke my drive shaft and wiped out my transmission and bmr torque arm. My first run I spun very bad I was also not power shifting and I was prob shifting a little to early so Im not really sure if you can take much from the time. the car is a full weight M6.
