Hey guys, what exactly do stock'01-'02 Z28's dyno? I've been told they range 290-295 in the rear. Ihave a 2001 Z28 with a Flowmaster catback, probably getting it dynoed saturday, any guesses what it may hit?

 

a4 or m6

 

Mustang dyno or Dynojet dyno?

 

I am guessing close to 300rwhp if it's a stick, around 290rwhp if it's a auto... and 280rwhp if it's gold/pewter.

 

Sorry guys, its an a4, black, dynojet dyno. Why only 280 if its gold/pewter? Only 290 with the 40 series flowmaster setup? they claim at least a 10 rwhp gain on them, kinda hoping for closer to the 300 range.

 

Heres a link if anyone wants to take a look at the z. www.cardomain.com/id/z28cruzin01

 

LS1's are all over the chart. You could be anywhere from 285-315 but probably closer to 300. No one car dyno's the same as another. Typically though a4's dyno a little lower than m6's simply because of drivetrain losses.

 

This is what my bone stock 2001 Trans Am M6 dyno'd. It rolled over 1,800 miles on the dyno.

 

He's just joking about the gold/pewter. I guess he doesn't like the color. As far as the flowmaster setup, flowmaster doesn't really do what it's name inplies very well. It's mostly for sound so don't expect to much from it.

 

Thanks for the input everyone, guess we'll see saturday, i'll post up the #'s when i'm done. By the way, any of you going on the 2004 Hot Rod Power Tour June 5-11?

 

How much do the two differ in results? I dynoed my car at a Mustang shop so I'll assume it was a Mustang dyno (Hope that's not bad).

 

I wanna say the Mustang reads about 5% lower than a Dynojet? That's not bad at all---actually most people seem to be more impressed by good numbers on a Mustang dyno.

Z28Cruzin, I'd guess you'll be pushing 300. Have fun on Saturday if you go for it!

 

Like mentioned already before, you should be in the 300 +/- 10hp range.

My 00 dynoed 297/309 bone stock, so mine is more on the strong side for pre-01's, I guess.

Keep us posted once you get the numbers.

My '01 Z28, A4, 2.73 rear, bone stock with the paper filter ..... laid down 284 RHWP on the DynoJet at Hypertech.

 

Mustang is a brand of dyno.. .regardless of the cars they service its best to look on your dyno sheet or call and ask.. Dont assume..

Mustang dynos, from what I understand, put a load on the car and is why they are often said to be "true" numbers.. I have yet to get on one but my near the end of Feb. My theory is that if you plug in the numbers you get on a dynojet dyno its computes..


Dynojet is just a more common dyno. Hence why most people like to use them to compare their scores.
