Default New Dyno Video

Well I had a great time today. We had an 09 Ram 5.7, An R/T 360, A supercharged 5.7L Charger and 5 Hemi Charger R/Ts. I had the 3rd best dyno but still not nearly as good as I had hopped. I'm back to 14psi with the addition of my 3" blower drive pulley.

Wait! I thought it would be more around 400rwhp?

Still pretty sick, but all that stuff you did and only 5hp?

That is what I was thinking based off my 1/4 mile times with 206 cams, 11psi boost and alcohol injection. Since switching to 224 cams I've been having issues with my 3rd gear pulls. I might be switching back to 206 cams this spring if I can't get the 224s dialed in. With all the mods I've done since the 1st blower dyno I've only added 7 rwhp.

Not giving up at all, just a little frustrated that my 224 cams didn't put the power down they should have. I payed $900 for them and I'm not seeing the return as I was guaranteed 50-60 rhwp increase, lol. My exhaust gas temps were high again, I'm going to get the intercooler installed and see what difference that makes.

Well, I think Eric nailed it. Eric suspects the 4.10 gears may be too much for the turbo grind cams. I've talked to a couple of tuners and it looks like he's right. If I'm going to keep the 224 cams and get the max out of my boost I will have to go back to 3.55 gears. With my engine and blower mods, thats what I'm being advised to do. So this spring looks like I will be switching back to 3.55s when I install the Auburn LSD.

4.10s gave me awesome power off the line but are killing my 3rd gear pull under boost.
