So i went to a car show Sunday to check out some of the cars and ended up getting a real nice gift.

Showed up 30 minutes before it ended and they had a dyno there so i thought this is a good chance to get a base line on my new vette before i put a cam and procharger/myth on. Jumped on the dyno and was pretty surprised ending up being the DYNO KING! Funny thing is, is that the guy that held everyone off all day till i got there had a pretty nice C5.

Mods are Headers and slp catback. Might be able to squeeze another 10 or 15 horse if i get it tuned and if it wasnt 95 degrees out.

Congrats!

very nice for a stocker!!

Thanks guys. And i was curious if the altitude had any kind of effect. Since im up in the Mile High State. Iv always heard guys saying their cars would run faster if they were at sea level.

The chart doesn't say what (if any) correction factor was used but most dynos correct to a standard temp, pressure, humidty, etc, etc. You probably aren't seeing raw numbers but corrected HP & TQ.

Congrats! It's cool that the two highest dynoed cars were bolton corvettes.

Congrats on your plaque...very cool.

I have to wonder what kind of car-show that was where a near-stock C6 was the most powerful car there though.

Congrats!

Brave man to get on a mobile dyno.

The guy said they were corrected numbers and tried explaining real quick but i couldnt understand with my car on and thinking there are a few cars behind me.

Thanks! I kinda felt bad robing his plaque cause his 9-10 year old son was really bummed.

Thanks man! Im pretty sure there was a forced induction class and n/a class. Cause there was a old firebird that had a huge blower/drag set up that put down high 600s.

Haha it was creaking pretty bad when i was getting on almost chickened out.

Heres some of the cars that got on the dyno.



The C5 i beat

Ferocious C6

I want to see the uncorrected numbers

Cspahn

Haha idk how to do that. Would it be more?

haljensen

The original dyno operator should have uncorrected numbers.

It will be less, the temp was in the mid 90's? What elevation was the run? What was the barametric pressure? Lots of things to consider for an uncorrected number.

Cspahn

Oh gotcha makes sense.
Temp:94.4
Elevation: 5800 ft
BP: 24.23
Humidity: 10%

haljensen

A bunch less.

SAE standard is (I think);

68°
00 feet (sea level)
29.92 " mercury barometer
humidity ?

Your conditions that day all would cause loss of HP so the correction would have added HP.

Highest reading uncorrected would be with cold air temp, below sea level location and a high barometer reading.

foco?

I live close to foco about 20 minutes south but the dyno was down in wheat ridge.
