Scanguage HP readout?

dually · 08-19-2008, 06:26 AM

What HP does your scanguage say your tacoma is putting out? With my 2.4L, the scanguage says about 25-45 with normal driving, then about 80-100 when WOT. This cant be accurate, can it?

I think it's an estimate of the percentage of the available power being used rather than a horsepower number.

Really? Then the info on the scanguage website is incorrect. They claim it is "actual" HP

FWIW the 2.4 dynos I have seen are putting 99 to 100 h.p. to the tires.

For a 1998 truck, its about normal. My 2000 2.7, dynoed when stock at about 106, and it was rated at 150. All 2.4's and 2.7's I have seen ynoed are right in that neighborhood.
