Default 498.46rwhp and 462.77rwtq tune ONLY zo6

This is a bone stock car tune only!Thanks to the guys from NRP!!!
All of the runs were made at 200 degrees on the temp gauge no cool downs or funny business, it was run like it would be run on the street.

This is a 2006 z06 with 1012 miles on it.

Nice numbers but they are STD numbers. SAE numbers would knock a bit off.

Great numbers!! Did you get any baseline numbers before tune? Are these corrected numbers? I assume this was on a dynojet and not a mustang dyno. Sorry for all the questions but with all the new options out there now, I'm grabbing all the info I can. Sure you heard this before but that's a fat ride also, enjoy it!

STD numbers are not apples to apples. Post the SAE.

Steve, don't mean to burst your bubble but in no way, shape, or form were the weather conditions correct for this dyno run.....you won't find a 27.83 barometer reading on this planet (maybe in the eye of a hurricane!) hence the 1.09 correction factor!

I agree, numbers look skewed IMO. The 50rwhp from just a tune...gotta be the best tuner in the world...and then some.

Actually a lot of tuners have been experiencing a few problems with some Z06's. It seems that some come out off the factory with low-octane tunes and put out some seriously low numbers. I have seen the same gains from LG, MTI Racing Atlanta, and A&A Corvettes.

The correction alone shows that the #'s are skewed. There is something up on the dyno hardware stacks weather readings causing way to much correction. Plus its in standard correction which will give higher #'s than SAE.

Yup, like I said, for someone who put there was "no funny business" in the post, there seems to be more funny business than most other dyno graph's I've seen.

I would bet 455 to the wheels SAE ... I'm not impressed.

Well I went and talked to the Dyno owner and he showed me the correction factors that were used and they are correct I live in Las Vegas Nv. We are at 2100 feet and the corrected DA for that day was about 5700 feet. here is a calculator I found online and used just for todays measuremnets of in-hg and Da and here it is. http://wahiduddin.net/calc/calc_da.htm

here is my zip code 89031 and here is the zip of the Dyno shop 89191

plug in the numbers and have a look for yourself. Here are the numbers for the car in SAE and the baseline numbers for that car.

The owner said that if you dont belive these numbers are real he will fly you to his shop and personally show you the car, the dyno, and what ever else you would like to see on his dime. roundtrip.


here is the dyno sheet.

Correction factor or not it's just a linear mulitiplication factor.

The actual value doesn't mean much, STD or SAE, but the difference before and after does matter.

http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/ai...ure-d_461.html

The standard for 2000ft altitude is 27.82 in-hg so I don't see how the hurricane statement is relevant


website for reference http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/ai...ure-d_461.html

The standard values for pressure, temperature and density (ignoring the slight effect of humidity) at altitudes from sea level to 16,000 feet (about 4900 m).

Altitude
(feet) Pressure
(in. Hg) Temp.
(F) Density
(%)
Altitude
(feet) Pressure (in. Hg)Temp. (F) Density (%)
sea level 29.92 59.0 100
2,000 27.82 51.9 94.3
4,000 25.84 44.7 88.8
6,000 23.98 37.6 83.6
8,000 22.22 30.5 78.6
10,000 20.57 23.3 73.8
12,000 19.02 16.2 69.3
14,000 17.57 9.1 65.0
16,000 16.21 1.9 60.9



1 ft (foot) = 0.3048 m
1 in mercury (Hg) = 3,376.8 N/m2 (Pa)= 0.49 lb/in2 (psi) = 12.8 in water

The before and afters make all the diff in the world,
since the before numbers are inline with what most others are seeing.

Sweet me too, I love vegas ... when are we going?


In the second graph, the 'before' number was done 2-3 months ago and 15 degrees cooler, but the atmospheric pressure happens to be identical?
