Dyno tested New Intake horn

[Stefan Kondolay]

Finally got a truck on the dyno with the new plenum, it was a 2006 with MPI twins, bullydog, and a TST. Stock injectors and fuel system.



Peak power went from 522hp&924ft. lbs with stock plenum vs. 530hp&936ft. lbs with the plenum I made. Peak power was at about 3200rpm



The gains were the biggest at around 2300rpm. the truck was up around 30hp&40ft. lbs.



All testing was done with the factory heater grid in place, I will do more tests with the two different styles of grid eliminators that I'm working on. \



If someone want I can e-mail then the dyno sheets of the truck so they can post them I just don't know how.



For those who are interest let me know. I will be building x10 2nd gens and x10 3rd gens at a time.



Thanks Stefan

Stefan, any chance on getting the horn dynoed on a stock truck?? It's a beautiful piece which youv'e designed and had built, and it looks like it should flow ALOT, but 8hp and 12 #'s peak gain doesn't sound like much to me and I am thinking it's because the mods on the truck are already demanding so much air. I would love to see the gains on a stock truck?? Thanks for taking the time to reply--not at all trying to diss your work!!!

My buddy Cory has a 2004 that I could probably borrow for the day and get on a dyno. Although I personally think that the majority of the gains no matter what power level will be at the 2100-2500rpm range. The other place I think the big gains will coming from is the grid delete. I didn't really notice how restrictive the factory grid was until I had one in my hand. The transition grid should be the ultimate because of the smooth transition.

Stefan, that would be great--I am sure your are busy, but I think all of us following this thread would love to see numbers on both stock and modified trucks. I too have a grid delete that I am waiting to put in until I get my truck on a dyno; That should be in the next few weeks if I am lucky. I'll post my numbers too just to add fuel to the fire if grid deletes are effective mods LOL!! I hope that they are, but I don't think the SOP dyno will tell as an accurate a story as a real dyno test ( even those are variable to some degree, as others have pointed out) Anyway, thanks for posting the numbers you already have and if you can make the time, your buddys stocker as well!!! You certainly have a well made product, good looking as well, and more numbers could only help you sell more plenums to people with mostly stock engines, of which though a minority, there are still quite a few of us>
