Ok, it's not "terribly" low, but I want some advice. But first let's tackle the doubters.

First of all, the car runs like a champ - very, very fast, and I have been able to compare to stock s2000's. I am having no hesitations.

My dyno was sorta low, and it didn't push strong to the redline, gaining all the way like other dynos showed. I only have the SC as a mod, and I'm curious if the air/fuel needs to be tuned or what.

I emailed Comptech just now to see what they say.

Dyno:

Hi Wes... For comparison here is a Pic of my Dyno on a dyno Jet. I have since dynoed it on a chasis dyno @ Comptech with better results...
283HP @ 8800rpm & 174.4FtLbs @ 7600rpm. The AirFuel ratio as measured by an exhaust probe varied from about 11 to 12.
Both dynos were done using the Ghost Booster Rev0.1
I also have the ProFlow TB installed.



Here is the link so you can get a closer look...

That P-Flow TB is definitly resulting in about 10 HP+! Hell it makes 6 on a NA tuned car. People would be supprised at the amount of power that just the TB makes in the mid range.

Update:

I had the car in the shop to have the new clutch installed and I had the installer check the belt, to see if it needed to be tightened (Comptech's suggestion). It turns out it was a little loose. They say this is common with a new belt. So you guys might want to have your belts checked.

Ask Comptech if the front grill would have any effect on your low dyno.

I wouldn't think so, since there is no airflow at the dyno. The car would be still and no air is being force in through the grill.

Are you going to dyno it again with a tighter belt? That should increase the boost quite a bit....

Edit: Does anyone know who makes the pulley on the back of the S/C?? Does Comptech fabricate it or did they buy it from someone else?? If so, what company?

Thanks
