Finally got on the Dyno...@@Dyno Scans@@

coopj40, yes it will have to be flashed

[skeeter1620]

But steel I thought if you get the computer flashed that it will be just a plain computer

kids It's why I have a PT to mod, and not a 60's muscle car, or a vette, or a viper and the srt was too boy-racer

[hyracer]

That's why I have a Vette and a PT...trouble is the kids drive the Vette (at the track)... the upside is the PT is all mine...downside is I pay all the bills, do all the mods. Kids, you gotta love em!

By the way, I have a nice .AVI file of one of the runs, with sound, if anyone cares.It's about 20 seconds and the file is kinda huge though.

Is yours an Autostick?

Yep.....or as I like to think of it, a high-brow slush-box.

hehehe, skeeter, ya, you are running the full gamit there! Get her a babbysitting/daycare job. I have seen that work effectively, but it could backfire if the kids aren't terrible.

"high-brow slushbox" hehe, I like that! I believe 20-21% is the AutoStick loss.

It is good to see PT's going to dyno's to see what products actualy make.. thank you.. But man some of you guys are way too smart for your own good.. jk

Well, I finally got on the Dyno this afternoon.

Those are good numbers. I figured my corrected HP by the following:

I assumed that my car was performing per the Stage1 figures, so my assumed HP was 235. I then took the WHP lets say 185. and divided that into 235 and came up with a factor of 1.27. I then used that figure to multply my WHP by, in order to get my actual HP. I then divided the 185 by the 235 and got .787234. I changed this to a negative number and added 1 to it, which gave me.212766 or a figure of 21% for pwr train loss. So if I took and subtracted 21% from the published HP (215HP) for the PT cruiser I would get a WHP of 169.85 which would be what I would expect a stockPT GT to produce. If I took and subtracted 21% from the 235HP figure for S1 I would expect to see 185.65 at wheels when I dynoed it. If you have a stick, I think that you should use a figure of 15-18% for drive train loss which would make you come out to 182.75WHP stock. Keep in mind that I was under the impression that higher math meant that I could count to 20, using both hands twice.

Sounds Good to ME! My daughter is in her last year of engineering school @ CMU and I can appreciate you response. Especially as it relates to a previous DYNO TEST.Your a TRUE gearhead.
