first of all, what is the dyno showing???

the way i see it is that both pulls were probably the same setup...and you dynoed 220/260 stock like you said.

and these dynos are with just the densecharger? or the densecharger and prochamber???

anyways, as you can see, there was a 3 hp 4 lb-ft of torque difference between the pulls...so if you gained 3 hp and 4 ft-lbs from stock (which was i'm sure done on a different day at a different time in different weather), then who's to say its not just a variation between runs? u could have gained nothing...paid $60-$90 for PVC pipe and $ for dyno time for a big fat 0

but congrats on your 3hp

edit: and where the a/f graph....that usually tells 90% of the story

they're just saying that those minor mods arn't going to make a world of a difference. Lets keep this cival everyone. i thought about getting a densecharger, but i have a cold air already and i have no problem w/ it cause it cools down after it sits for like 10 mins anyways. and while your driving i'm sure it's alot cooler than when you feel it when you stop cause all the heat has no where to go, but while your driving it's being cooled from the air comming through the fender.

does this make sense?
and chick, good job on your times and dyno:jeff:

4 hp is 4 hp...i'll take 4hp anyday...

my point was not that you shouldn't mod for 4 hp....just that your dyno testing is not proof that you gained 4 hp from your pvc pipes you call an intake...and neither is your butt dyno...or your 14.2 second timeslip

i ran a 13.96 with a tri-ax shifter, that must have added atleast 10 hp :emb:
