Here are the results from Sams Performance Dyno Day. They are listed by vehicle owner in their respective catergory, I'm sorry I haven't got a list of what the models of the vehicles were, maybe we can amend the list if the owners let us know what their vehicle was, eg VT SS etc.

Couple of things to note, there were some unbelievable repeatable cars, some cars had a variance of no more than .6RWKW from 3 runs.
Also, as an exercise, I dyno'd one of the LS2 powered cars in 3rd and then 4th gear, results were 235.6 and 235.5RWKW. Some of these LS2 vehicles need to done in 3rd as in 4th sometimes they are still making power at 200kph, and depending on dyno model, some can only go to 200kph, some can go higher so it isn't a drama for these.

Everybody got a printout of their best run, on the printout where all of the Vehicle Information is, there is a Correction Standard and how much Atmospheric Correction was being applied, from memory it hovered around the mid 3% mark all day, this data is calculated from an Electronic Weather Station that is attached to the boom arm of the Dyno Control Cabinet which continuously updates the relevant readings which are Ambient Temp, Barometric Pressure and Relative Humidity, and those paying attention the readings were on display all day on the Data Projection on the back wall.

What FI LS1's were they? Not a very big number for an FI setup

A couple of the FI cars had problems and had to be shut off early due to rising AFRs/detonation.

Thanks for posting the list up Todd.

I don't think you actually took a break all day - what a Trooper !!
At least some of the troops keep the food and coco cola up to you :)

My car was one of them, for some reason its down about 80rwhp.

I pulled 4 spark plugs out yesterday to see what they were like and they are pretty much shagged (took a pic of one of them) so that wouldn't help.

The other one just has a non cooled S-Trim from capa with a basic mail order tune.
We had to fix a couple of things on it after the first dyno run (BOV set way to soft and leaking boost etc)

Funny I planed this day but I didn't give my car the once over to maker sure it will perform nicely.
I'm still kicking myself in the arse from it! :bash:

Big thanks to Todd and the boys for there hard work on the day, and cheers for posting the results up for us.:)
