Each dyno is different. How many dynoes have you used? Or how much experience do you have modifying cars? To compare, it would have to be the same dyno on the same day and same car. Even stock cars will dyno differently. Trap speed is a better method of comparing power. Plus, you realize that autos dyno lower than manuals right? Traps speeds will be similar.
how will they be similar if they weigh different and put different amounts of power down?
(if they are used correctly)
Yes, there is no "this is the best" answer - many variables - much depends on your personal objectives for the car, how deep your wallet goes, how involved in the build/tune process you will be & how much risk you're willing to take on etc. etc.
There are clearly a lot of noobs here:headbonk: Below is an example of a trap speed to HP calculator. You put the trap speed in and vehicle weight and it gives you a power estimate. I have already commented on dynoes and others have too. Dynoes are a tuning tool but people like to use them for bragging purposes. They are all different. You can take your car today and get it dynoed. Then dyno it tomorrow on a different dyno and even if it is the same bramd of dyno, you will have a different power every time. This is why you hear people say "what does that dyno sheet trap?".how will they be similar if they weigh different and put different amounts of power down?
dyno has and always will be the true way to compare vehicles. thats what correction factors are for
I've followed Scott for years, his setup is one of the main reasons I bought a VMP TVS, his results are insane.
These whipple numbers are coming straight from Hypermotive and Lethal's websites, without special discounting promotions.I don't know where these Whipple $$ numbers come from but I paid $7,870 for my setup. Whipple 2.9, 132 mm TB upgrade, dual fans, Whipple tune and the Whipple 3 yr. / 36,000 mile warranty. I did wait for a sale. 651 rwhp with auto and drives better than stock.
Which SC to buy? My vote, Whipple
