Dyno on ES vs GTS

almost every vehicle manufacturer boosts there HP #'s to a certain extent, all the way down to ATV's, Snowmobiles, and Motorcycles

 

the rated hp is before the crank and wheels so it does make a difference. i mean think about the power thats robbed by the car's weight, the heavy pulley, and other things. the 168hp is from the 2.4L 09 GTS so the 129 might be from the 152hp 2.0L 08 GTS.

 

nah dude, weight doesn't matter

08 gts = 152 fed, or 142 pzev
09 gts = 168

 

our cars curb weight is about 3000lbs. im stuck with the slowest of them all -1

 

me too =/ but with all my mods i can run a 16 1/4 mile=) 16.15 is my fastest so far. and 0-60 is 8.08 not bad

 

what do you have for mods?

 

ive got the injen cai, v1 pully and timing control box. and a cat back (custom) which i dont think helps at all. next is the pully

 

i only have the injen CAI but im should be receiving a new pulley by next week and have that and a custom catback done by next weekend where im getting put on a dyno. i'll post numbers and pics when i can.

 

sounds good let me know

 

Yeah the 09 gts is the new 4b12 2.4L 168hp... the 08 had the 2.0 personally the 2.4 isnt that much better with the cvt but you buy whatever you can afford right then dump enuff $$$$ into it to make it faster. Which in retrospect is kinda dumb... if i had just saved the $ and gotten the ra from the beginning i would have been happier.

 

update: i pulle a 16.15 1/4 mile and a 7.58 0-60 =)

 

hey guys...last week i got up on the dyno, didnt post anything because i dont have the chart since the printer was bad and i didnt have a jump drive at the moment...anyhow, with the Injen CAI, RRMs pulley (dont know the diff between V1 & V2, so i dont know which one i have), and the Tsudo N1 axle back, i was putting out 162 whp, dont remember tq...after that i installed RRMs header and piggy so, this thursday comes up for the dyno ill take my jump drive and bring an image for all to see...

 

sweet let us know after the headers and piggy cuz those are my next two items tog et

 

will do bro...just give me till thursday, lol

 

162 at the wheels very nice... that equates to about what 175 hp at the fly with ~8% drivetrain loss. now if only we knew what the drivetrain loss was in realfife numbers. do u have a baseline dyno run to compare to? id love to know what to expect from my 09 gts.

 

nop sorry never dynoed as stock...wanted to but never got to it...

 

thats cool. im still curious as to what you get with the header and piggy. keep us all up to date man. btw the front end looks sick!
