I have not seen the "real" graph (the one that will be posted on the SC web site sometime in the future).

I did see one graph from one of the donor trucks over on Dodgetalk.com. It showed a 10-15 HP and Tq increase over stock, from 3K-5.5K. The talk at that time though was that SC did some tweaking to the code that upped that increase to around 20HP/TQ peak, with a 10-20HP/TQ increase across the range.

I also see that my CC has just been charged by SoCal, so the "watch Internet vendor closely" stage has begun... :-)

Hey Lurk,

A little off thread topic here, sort of.

Do you know any dyno places near us. I'd really like a before and after dyno, to justify keeping it.

Shoot me an e-mail when you get time, Thanks

Todd, I heard, but haven't validated, that there is one just off 35, between BW8 and 518...

I don't listen too well, as finding an AWD dyno doesn't seem worthwhile.

For those looking for a dyno location, go to www.dynojet.com. They list the dynos per state. Looks to be a good resource...

There's also two shops listed with Pearland addresses, this may be doable!

I got an email from Superchips yesterday afternoon about my tuner;

We are almost done with all the donor tuner shipments. I just asked what the deal is on yours and should find out here today on your tuner. Sorry for the delay.

I am starting to get real antsy for my tuner. I already notice a big difference with the cold weather but I am sure the tuner will enhance that even more.

now someone is going to get all the butt dyno stuff, just thinking about their tuner on the way, Just the thought is probably worth 7-10 hp!

Just called a dyno near where I live.

$50 bucks for 3 pulls! Pretty good deal.

Before and after dyno, here I come.

I just dropped by the local shop that specializes on BMW work. They are the closest Dyno and it is $75 for 3 pulls. I am in north Houston and would like to do 4 pulls if possible. I'd like to see where my truck is now (HP/Torque wise), with the Superchips, with new HO cams (taking off the superchips) and with new cams and the Superchips to see the max effect all the mods have together. If anyone knows of a dyno that is cheaper around here, I'll go and post the results for y'all.

So far I have a 4.7L CC 4X4 w/homebrew intake w/ K&N, moved IAT, 180* T-stat, True Dual Exhaust, fastman T-body, some HO Cams sitting on the floorboard and a Superchips programmer on the way.

Also, does anyone have any estimates as to the HP so I can predict what the dyno will read?

I wonder if you should put some miles on each mod in between pulls.
That way the PCM adapts.

Although I don't know if full throttle acceleration is even improved much as the PCM learns each time. Probably mostly MPG and all that steady cruising stuff.

Opie, TexasTodd and I are in the south Houston area. I would guess that the Dyno Todd talked about above is in our area.

Opie,

Shoot me an e-mail, the addy is under the envelope.

We could meet up and go at the same time, Pre super chips, and see what a few different mods do for the #'s. I have some good mods too, a few diff. than you however. I'll go post super chips too, to see if it's it's worth keeping.

Todd

Guess what the UPS guy dropped off at my house today?

Anyway, it's $100 for 3 pulls or $35 each here where I live and I do plan to make a run before I load my tuner and again afterwards.

I hope Santa brings the rest of you all yours soon.

TexasTodd: e-mail me at: opie at yahoo dot com .

It is not my work e-mail, but I can get to it in the next few days (when my Superchips arrives).

I live up in spring, but am soon relocating to Victoria.
