Chipped only dyno results

[Crash6]

Dyno'd the car today on a 4 wheel Mustang Dyno.

2002 Audi S4 Avant
59,000 original miles.
GIAC chip
Nothing else (no exhaust, intake, nothing)

260 hp @ 5258 RPM
300 ft lb @ 3280 RPM

Hell of a lot better than I expected.....

Good work

[Videlov]

We are talking about awhp correct? Those are pretty good numbers.

[Crash6]

Yup. Those are awhp numbers. I'm not sure what the drive train loss is to then calculate crank hp. 22-25% - ish?

[changs4]

guess you have one of the most healthy S4s out there

I used dynolicious on my iphone (which has been said to be very close to actual dyno numbers and it said I put down 290 at the wheels. Thats with all the stuff in my sig.

Josh

(I do wonder what the actual weight of the car is though. I put in 5300 lbs based off of the weight that is printed on the side of the car in the door (4950ish) so i added a few hundered lbs for fluids (almost a full tank of gas) and me (185 lbs). Sound right? Oh and I have a little bit of tuning done with lemmiwinks.

Srry for thread jacking.

HOLY cow you are joking, right? 5300 lbs? LOL try 1500 less!

Are you driving a mac truck or an s4? Just curious

Beat ya! Hahah

[obviouspro]

Beat ya! Hahah

Haha damnit. I'm on my phone give me a little break

[ThePaintballGuy]

I was basing the numbers off what it said inside the door of my car. I thought it was high too but I figured the manufacture would know how much the car weighed.

Hmm I'm not sure what that number could be...maybe the most the frame could take, ie, weight capacity? But no- stock S4 weighs about 3600 lbs, or 3800 with driver as I meant earlier.

[ThePaintballGuy]

WOW I feel like a retard. Here is a pic I took of the door but I just figured out what it is.



The number is the actual weight that the car should not exceed. Gross Vehicle Weight Rating. I knew it was too high. HAHA

Josh

[InLoveWithMyS4]

LOL, its cool, we all make dumb mistakes.

But yeah, I figured that's what your number was (as that's what I guessed above your last post!).

[hoosierchemist]

Unfortunately for your HP numbers, the higher the weight, the more power it takes to accelerate at a given rate. That means that dynolicious overestimated your HP because it was thinking your engine was moving more mass than was really there.

/wet blanket

[ThePaintballGuy]

yeah I realize that. I will have to lower the weight and see what it's really putting down.

[sean1.8t]

dynolicious is very hit and miss.

take it's results with 1/43rd grain of salt.

and the weight of your vehicle(fluids and gas included) is in your trunk. and it's in kilograms

[MikeyB3]

I have dynolicious too. We should really put a sticky up about all the info that one would need to enter in to get the "accurate" results.

While I know that it's not a dyno, from my experience, it's a pretty good estimation of power. Not 100% accurate, but more accurate than other, more expensive pieces of equipment that does nearly the same thing.

[BiTurboLovin]

G-Tech comes to mind....

[ThirdStrike]

nice man. i would of been there if i werent out of town. dougs dyno ftw

[jibberjive]

Dynolicious is an app for the iPhone, right? It's more accurate than a G-tech?? Haha

[Slow4]

Nice. How much more does an AVANT weigh?

I use both Dynolicious and PocketDyno to "see" what I'm pushing out. When I just had my chip, the Dynolicious once put me out at 336hp @ 3800lb gross weight...Lol! Since than, it put me at 255, 236, 249, 212(hp)....

I haven't used it since with my new mods.

[MikeyB3]

Dont get me wrong, there's plenty out there that does better than Dynolicious. Just saying its a fair idea of what you might be gaining in terms of power.

There was a test done on some internet car show with it, and it was 1-3 hp variant off of an actual dyno that they tested with.

2001.5 S4
GIAC Chip
Samco TBB (to replace tear in OEM boot)

on a DYNOmite dyno I put down ~270 whp & ~320 wtq
This was in cold weather in Md, I would say around 45-55 degrees.

my car 01.5 completely stock with Giac X chip dynoed 286 AWHP
