Default Getting the truck Dyno'd

Well finally tomorrow after I get off work I will be taking the truck down to a local performance shop to hop on their dyno for a few pulls to see where the truck stands as of right now before I get into the major mods of the summer. I will do it again after I get the rest of the mods done towards the end of the summer as well to see what they added in terms of RWHP and RWTQ.

What will be tested tomorrow:

Truck:
05' Ram 1500 SLT w/ 5.7L HEMI

Current Modifications:
- Borla Catback Exhaust System
- Modified AFE Hemi High Breather CAI
- Superchips 3815 Flash Paq (91 Performance Tune Adjusted)
- 4.56 Gears
- DMH Electric Cutout (opened and closed, I want to know what the difference is between the two)
- Yokohama Parada Spec X Tires (275/60/R20)

After the new modifications are done towards the end of August (maybe sooner) it will have all my current modifications plus:

- Inertia Motorsports Spartan Cam (214/218 113LSA)
- 6.1 Springs/Rods/Retainers
- Hedman LT Headers
- DSP w/ Custom Tune

This should be interesting to find out how it does....

No way, too high. Try 250-260rwhp 265-280rwtq
I suppose he will get closer to 300rwhp with a DynoJet as those are 14-20% higher than a mustang dyno per say.

$50 for a half hour, not that much.

And damn dirydog I hope my numbers are a little better than that, those are basically stock numbers. Unforunately it will be on a Dynojet, there were no Mustang Dynos near me. But thats alright, I really only want it as a comparison of what I have now and I have after all the other work is completed and I figure if I use the same dyno both times it should show the gains of adding the new stuff on vs now, maybe not as accurate but they should be relative to each other.
