I need to do a pre and post header dyno. Count me in for the dyno, and I'll get some numbers prior to the header install.

I'm not certain if your aware of this or not. Dyno there the first time and from that time on so you get true numbers on your gains. All dyno's are different.

Mr T. If time allows, u can count me in. I'll know more after the 1st.

I gotta question, a couple of my Hyundai guys wanted to do some pulls since they have superchargers on their cars. If you don't get the list filled up and there is room, could they join us?

2 1/2 weeks to go! Lets gets the dyno list filled, or we may have to let Spiffys friends in with their Hyundai's:wink:, although......... it would be cool to see what those supercharged rice burners got. I guess that would be a yes vote for Spiffys friends if it comes down to a vote:thumbs_u: A bitch slap for every Hyundai though..........

George, sorry man I read this the other day and forgot to respond. I doubt for this particular time that would be a good idea. Our host DC Performance is really wanting to show the LX community what they have to offer us. If we showed up with another brand of car in tow it may not look good.

This is no offense to them as they are pretty cool guys, at least the few I spoke to at Beach Burger. :wink:

Spiffywerks

08-31-2007, 02:21 AM

No problem Tom. I just figured if you needed some more fillers, I'm sure they would be more than willing to fill some spots --- even being a different car. Was just putting it out there. I'll go. Not sure if I'll pull though.

My attendance is now questionable. One daughter has a soccer game at 1:00 pm and I don't have the soccer schedule for the second daughter yet. If it is an afternoon game, I'll be there for the first half of the meet. Soccer is really going to mess up my Saturday meet schedules!!

OK, I'm still in. Kids soccer games are at 1:00 and 3:00, so I'll be there from 9:00 to 12:00.

Just for you Albert :wink: I ordered some OBDII cables today. I should get them in two days and be able to make another DMM (Dyno mode module).

Mighty Noid

09-10-2007, 03:33 PM

AWESOME!!!!

Jon... I will chip in for that cable and shipping...

YOU ROCK!

See everyone on Saturday...

Anymore takers... let's see what your car does... it doesn't matter if you are stock either... cause you will need a starting point to see what your upcoming mods will do to your car...

Good time to do a base run, get a reading of what your car is before the mod:wink:
In user control panel on the left side click on "edit signature", its at the top of the list. You should be able to figure it out from there, hth

These guys are commited to Mopar performance and products.

A big thanks to: Tony, Lyle, Kim, Dan, Chris and everyone else who made this a great day.

We will be doing this again in the spring but if you need any thing done between now and then by all means give these guys a call.

I think the more JonW & Chris start chatting these cars are going to sing !!!

Bob (Dupie) took some great pics and he'll post when he gets a chance.

I have a few I'll throw up later.

This is the reasoning behind the three different sets of numbers today:

thewagon ------ Magnum RT ---
HP/Torque
302.08/323.61 <<< Super Chips Ver. 1.0 & original flashes
301.03/334.55 <<< Jon W UPDATED FLASHES & NO SC installed
302.08/323.61 <<< UPDATED FLASHES & UPDATED SC

The guys at DC Performance are dedicated to our Mopar rides and bringing out the best for us. Thanks for a great day and all your help the past few days with my Magnum.
I was impressed and grateful.
Those caliper covers really looked great when mounted and behind the wheels!!!
The place is well laid out and organized, anyone would feel comfortable having you all work on our rides!

Andrew,
It looks like your HP was pretty steady throughout, but that your torque really picked up after updating the factory flash. Can't really say SC was doing anything for you though....

by the way did anyone dyno a stock hemi 5.7?

Mighty Noid

09-16-2007, 04:06 PM

Well MMAM (not sure on superchips), thewagon, dupie24 & Tmagnum have a pretty stock motor... they just have CAI, cat-back exhaust and superchips tuner... that is as stock as they got...

JonW

09-16-2007, 05:23 PM

thewagon's middle runs were with no Superchips. If you look at 'Noid's summary list of pulls, you see some huge variations between 5.7's that basically all have the same mods. I think what we decided was causing the low results were those using 87 octane and SC tunes for that.

Andew & Hal - what octane and tune were you guys running?

thewagon

09-16-2007, 07:21 PM

91 octane <before and after the SC update
SC Performance Tune <before and after the SC update
47k miles
Still not sure why Tom's was so far apart from Hal's and I. Maybe because its still a new car with so little miles. :Na_Na_Na_Na:

Can you feel a difference????

Seems to be fine!

The only differance is that in auto stick it shifts sooner and has no 5th, other than that she still feels strong!

It must not have been broken in properly.:doh: Too much of that grannie style driving!:Na_Na_Na_Na:

I got your grannie, I seem to remember leading a pair of 300's through a certain tunnel at WOT! :Na_Na_Na_Na: :rock:

Thanks for sharing the pics guys, wish I could have been there. I would like to see what difference a few mods, 91 tune running 91 octane would do. Next time.

It was a great day, if ya missed it, to bad, make it next time. These guys are the real deal. Authorized warranty work, performance work, installs, etc. etc. The place is very clean, lots of vipers around. Lyle was great, I know these guys will treat you right if your looking to do some mods to your ride.
Here are a few pics I took

If I could had got my car there, I would had run it. How much does it cost to just go and do 3 pulls? I'd like to get a baseline for my car.

Oh well. The car does look great! I'm excited about this coming weekend. :D
I think its $125 - we got it for $65, and they did my car twice. Once with 87 octane (I was wondering why the numbers were low) and then again after I filled with 91 and retuned to SC 91. No charge for the second run. These guys are good.

I reset adaptives a few days before and was runing Cevron 91 for several weeks with a 91 SC flash, and tried to run it agressively since the re-set.

Also had it set to reduced torque management, whatever that means.

And paddle hold, but had Chris back out at 5500 RPM's.

It seemed apparent after Andrews re-run, that the flash Jon did, hadn't been learned yet, and it was getting late, so I didn't re-run.
I spoke to Lyle today, and I'll try to get back down there and do a pull again, before any more mods.
During my pull, I was 6 TCM versions back and something like 5 on the other software, and had surging issues with SC version 1.11.

The surging is mostly gone now.

I had about 9000 miles on the car, and it seems to be waking up a bit.
