As the title states, heading to the local dyno to see what kind of numbers the stage 1 kit puts down.
The setup:
2017 GT, A6 Car, 3.55 gearset
Whipple GEN 3/750HP Stage 1 kit (93 Octane)
MMR OPG's/Sprocket
Completely stock otherwise, Running the Whipple tune with Octane Adjust turned off, knock limiting still active.
91 Octane Pump gas with Boostane. (93 or greater not available)
Appears to be a Dynojet dyno.
I did have a couple of questions. I'm sure the operator knows, I was going to unplug the connector by the air box which should fully disable the advance trac/traction control (had read that just holding the TC switch does not fully disable in dyno situations), and I believe 4th gear is preferred? I just want to be prepared just in case the operator is unaware of how to properly dyno an S550 and looking for some advice on that.
Guesstimate, hoping for 550ish, uncorrected. Over 600 corrected and I would be perfectly happy.
Scheduled for the 20th of April, results and video shortly after.
*RESULTS*
Car made 643HP/529TQ:
I was very pleased with those results with a pull after a short cool down backing it up north of 600.
Huge thanks to @LethalPerformance , Modular Motorsports Racing, and @Whipple SC for their help and great products.
Now it's off to the dragstrip to run some 12's. Currently I only have 255 Nitto's out back, which are very undersized for this power no doubt. Hoping to use the Whipple power by gear function to let me apply as much as I can down low, and let hear eat up top!
Results on that coming this Friday.
