Dynojets are consistent. and we had run like 20-30 different miatas on the same dyno -- so it wasn't a fluke/fake number. I think Tim's manifold was just a great pairing to that turbo -- the BEGI IM helped a butt ton too. |
Sub'd, great start, a GT2560 to start and upgraded rods are in my foreseeable future.

we repeated it on Ed's 97. same absurdflow manifold, begi IM, and TB. stock motor. 93 pump. he was running like 14-15psi and made 270rwhp on the dynojet. nearly identical plot -- ill have to look for it.

Just be aware that a custom intake manifold will most likely be 2x the cost of the flat top, and no guarantee it will actually be better. |
just make sure it has like ~9" runners.

Inb4 hate for saying this, but it is a dyno jet, which we all know reads a bit high, but even on a Mustang dyno that's about 280 which is still impressive.

lol. you got a neg cat for speaking the truth.

I always prefer dynojets when power bragging for all the reasons Spendington listed.

Accuracy and precision (ie reliability) aren't the same thing. /end pendant hat |

Just purchased these. I imagine they will take forever to arrive but that should give me some time to practice my fabricating skills on making some seat rails.

Fair enough. Dynojets are accurate. There are other dynos which are more precise. They each have their place, and I use one or the other depending on what my goals are. What annoys me is when people who don't understand physics say that Dynojets "read high". No, they don't. They read accurately. They measure power directly by seeing how long it takes to accelerate a drum of a known mass and size from one speed to another, higher, speed. Accelerating the drum is doing work, the time it takes to do that work is power. Do a little unit conversion and you have horsepower.
