tawss04 Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 One of the performance shops in Jacksonville just got an AWD dyno a couple of months ago. Sat they were running a special, $75 for 3 pulls. So I figured what the hell I'll see what its got . They had to extend the dyno all the way to get the truck on it and the truck was almost to long The fisrt to pulls were on motor, their tach pick up was acting up and said it had 251.5hp at the wheels and did not get a torque reading , which seemed a little low because the nitrous pull was 382.2 hp and just over 440lbs of torque ( got it working on that pull). if its a 100% cause of the tach pick up problem but it gives me an idea. I only have a 125 shot and the hp went from 251 to 382, thats a 131hp bump, I never have seen a jump like that I wold have expected a 70 to 90hp bump or so.

Bowtie70SS Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 What kind of dyno do they have? Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwalls54 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 if its a wet shot most kits are rated to the wheels, so that could be right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_forma Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 doesnt 251 sound pretty low for a base pull? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkt71 Posted October 4, 2006 Report Share Posted October 4, 2006 I thought I read that the LQ9 typically puts down 275-290HP to the wheels stock at the minimum? Does the AWD soak up that much HP?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted October 5, 2006 Report Share Posted October 5, 2006 doesnt 251 sound pretty low for a base pull? Sounds low to me also. We ran detjoe's truck at W2W and it made 268.4 hp and 304.8 tq stock. After a mild tuning it made 281hp and 319.4 tq. This was on their awd dyno.

ChevySSandChevy8.1 Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 that wet shot really woke the truck up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
