Stage 2 - 280whp/318wtq?

Is that right? My searches on the forum here seem to indicate that at Stage 2, the numbers should be lower. But now I came across this video on youtube:

 

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T7sNUPHWi8w]YouTube - Legacy GT Dyno Run[/ame]

 

My 2005 LGT being dyno tuned by Tim Bailey at Surgeline Tuning in Portland, OR. 280whp, 318wtq, 18psi... And it get's 28.5 mpg on the highway!

 

MODS: Cobb AP v2, Cobb intake, Cobb catted downpipe, TurboXS catless uppipe, HKS silent hi-power catback, stock turbo 92 octane.

So basically, it's just a full turboback exhaust and a catless UP...

 

and the intake (from my understand) doesn't really make a difference (stock intake is sufficient for 400 hp + i think someone once said?)

I believe this guy is to be the same person as you are referring to.

Looks like they are using a Mustang Dyno so it shouldn't be reading that high....

But who knows... any tuner can tweak numbers, or the car itself is healthy out of the box.

 

I myself thought that it was definitely a high reading but....don't wanna get involved with "I'm right ur Wrong!!" type of thread if you know what I mean. :rolleyes:

If I recall, you did have baseline numbers and they were fairly high as well?

 

 

My baseline was done at another shop, but it was on a Dynojet too. I got ~222whp/250wtq when I was completely stock.

Got tuned @ P&L too with Stg 2, simmular mods as well, but I have AVO intake.

272whp/335wtqhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v97/Bbc84/Legacy%20GT/Stg2DynoTuned.jpg

Bbc84, when you say AVO intake, do you mean a panel filter or a short ram and with a cold air box.

Also, guys, keep in mind that the 280hp the youtube shows is not from just a typical stage 2 (with exhaust and uppipe upgrades)....it includes a perrin TMIC, Cobb intake with air box and colder plugs as well as noted in the other thread...

Thanks Bbc84. Add an upgraded TMIC and you would be pretty much at the same 280 hp I would think...if not more.

 

I am getting the impression that these intakes add some output in the stock turbo once Stg 2 is reached..... I was sooo used to hearing that "intakes don't add anything"....

Just got my new tune on Thursday (East Coast Swappers in Windsor CT). I'll post Dyno sheets asap.

Mods:

Spec Stage 3+ Clutch and Flywheel

XO Racing FMIC

Perrin Full Recirc BOV

Invidia Catless Up Pipe

Invidia Down Pipe

Borla Cat Back

Hallman Pro RX Boost Control

Perrin CAI

19 psi Tune

 

Original tune on a Dynapack showed 280/330 without FMIC.

Baseline on brand new Mustang Dyno 250/300

New tune with FMIC 270/330 on Mustang Dyno...that means 310/360 on the Dynapack.

 

As much as I like the higher numbers, for now am going to believe the Mustang....

I bought a TMIC after the tune, but it didnt fit so I sold it. Ill be saving up for a FMIC for next year.

 

And my intake is loud, but now with RE01R tires in the summer I think those annoy me more. Sounds like I need wheel bearings on all 4 corners.

When i was dynoed on a tdc e tune back in the day (mods, cobb catless dp, invidia catless up, ap, pulley, panel filter)i made 263/290 at 18psi. Car trapped 103. Then I added an aem intake and switched to a perring catted dp(3" flange) and added a mr quad tip cbe. No new dyno numbers byt my trap speeds went to almost 107mph...
