Getting baseline dyno numbers on a stock automatic c7 z06
I searched and found some data on stock z06 auto numbers and they are anywhere from 520-560whp on a Dynojet. Tomorrow it is time to get some baseline numbers before the upgrades. What do you think a stock automatic z06 should show using a Dynojet style dyno? I will post the results here.
Results on a Mustang Dyno:
529/573 SAE

Mine was 529/585.
It did have a Mamo ported T/B and Borla X pipe at the time.
91 oct. pump gas.
Dynojet 224X.

I had an intake when I did my baseline and blended 91 oct up to 95 with Torco (run it every tank now). Not stock but for comparison sake, my dynojet numbers were 575whp and 635wtq with that setup.
Curious, what boost did you guys see on the dyno with your stock/baseline runs? I was getting 8.64 max with the above setup (12lbs now) but that's also over 6K' up....

What is everyone figuring for drivetrain loss? I keep hearing 12% for manual and 15% for autos. My '19 M7 with Mamo PTB and BMS filter running on 93 put out 589 h/p and 587 torque on the Dynojet. Is the correct way to calculate using 12% as an example - 589 X 1.12 or 589 / .88?

Curious to see what my 2019 automatic 8 ZO6 will put down. Can’t really picture a stock Z putting down anything less than 535-540whp on a A8. I’d be a little disappointed honestly

Simply too many variables to say what the baseline "should" be.
In a perfect world everyone would baseline on the same dyno with the same air quality.
I see this all the time in the motorcycle world. Guys get too hung up on a "number" and are disappointed when
the outcome is less than expected.
Then the tendency is to start throwing expensive parts at it to bump the "number" up to an acceptable level.
In the mean time your wallet is drained dry.
Been there myself more than once.

As 383vett has mentioned, take the car to a drag strip and make a few passes to get a MPH figure.
The variable there is also air quality.
A ballpark number should be 128 MPH IMHO.
Mine runs 129-132 with that 529 HP number.

Sorry for the delay.
I ended up taking to a shop with a mustang dyno and got 529whp 573torque on 91 pump gas with SAE correction. It was running super rich ~10.5.
Now I need to get some 1/4 runs in while it is still stock.

What gains do you think I will see after adding and tuning with:
Halltech air intake
meth injection
2.3 griptech pulley/hub
borla xpipe(60547)
Thanks!

Just added Halltech CAI, Borla X pipe, and upper pulley tune. 599 rwhp, 637 torque.. very happy with those numbers. Have been running 10.8 consistently before mods. Hoping for 10.6 ish now..
