Dyno-mite!
 

Finally found an all wheel drive dyno and strapped my X in. I wanted to see if the last mod paid off. I recently added an X pipe and it felt more torquey around 3900 rpm's, the sound is a little over kill at WOT, but around town is has a deep sort of a growl! As it stands I picked up around 16 hp and 10 ftp of torque. I also changed the Dinan air filter just prior to this test, so that combined with the X pipe and my beast has never breathed better!

I tried to attach a video clip, but for some reason it would not upload to the web-site, the file format that the video was shot in is .mov and I think the Xworld will only take .wmv, I'm not sure how to convert it or if it's even possible?! If i figure it out I will add video clips later. Until then I guess you will just have to settle for a few pic's.

So what are your power numbers?

What's your average MPG city/highway?

Graphs, lets see them. Also did they to A/F?
:thumbup:

Are those numbers your total gains including S3 or with just the addition of the X-pipe?

Chili,

Those gains are with S3 Dinan package and the X-pipe. The X-pipe was the most recent mod. After the Brembo BBK. Also mileage is around 10-13 around town (depending on how much I get into it) and 15-19 freeway (again depending on how I'm feel'n that day).

So what are the total numbers to the wheels with everything as it stands now, charger and all?

I asked that question back in July of 2008 :)

Where? Where? Where? - would love to put my Dinan S2 upgrade thru a dyno - I already know I can beat Mustang 5.0s (at half my wgt), but would love to get some actual numbers - best hwy mileage was 22.7mpg using Chevron (20.1mpg using just about anything else) - around town it's ditto, how frisky do I feel, but usually 13-17mpg

Which 5.0's have you been racing :rofl: Bone stock fox chassis with nothing done to them at all :)

:wow: Wait...so per dyno, that puts you at around roughly 360hp / 360lb feet tq. Why does Dinan advertise 450hp? I was seriously considering an upgrade by adding the supercharger (before i heard about X5 ///M) but with the gains you're posting, i'm not sure if the $ would've been worth it... :dunno: ...

Anyhoo...i'm sure she must still be an even lovelier beast!

If he is putting down 360hp at the wheels, it should be around 450hp at the crank. That sounds about right then.

I got a few mustang chunks in my stool. ;) ;) Mostly highway, a couple jerks who just had to prove something. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: Hitting those corners at speed is no comparison.
:p:

Hey! I know better than to take on a Rousch Mustang - and they haven't been single pipe Mustangs, but dual pipe sport setups - however, I do backdown by 75-80mph - I'd really like to get on a dragstrip to find out my 1/4 mile time & speed

definitely stock mustangs......thats it.

numbers of the beast............
 

Hey guys sorry it took me a while to realize that I didn't post my numbers on this thread, I guess I had done it on another or PM'd someone. I also got hung up on trying to upload a video clip of my beast on the dyno. I'm pretty tech savvy but every time I thought I had figured it out it the dam web-site wouldn't let me?????

Anyway sorry for the long answer to the short question. I had three pulls and my numbers were as follows: 390, 388, 385. Getting fresh air to the motor was a huge problem at the shop I went to. By the second pull, it was already breathing in spent exhaust and it go worse.

I sure wish I could have posted the video clip, it was pretty crazy seeing the X strapped down and going like ape shit!

Awesome numbers man!!! :thumbup:

You can upload the video to YouTube or Photobucket and then post a link to it here. I would love to see it!

Nice! :D Worth every penny i'm sure...if you ever get a chance to track, please post 0-60 & 1/4 mile. I assume you would probably post similar or better numbers than the X6 50i.
