TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

No, you drive my truck and use your tires.

 

Gotcha. Lol.

 

Well, I had a set of ü r d long tubes lined up. Apparently aliens have abducted the seller. He has straight up dis-a-fucking-peared.

Anyone sitting on a set that may want to unload them, please, let me know.

 

That's almost certainly a large part of the difference - Mustang Dynos always produce lower results than Dynojet. It's a safe bet your numbers would have been notably higher on a Dynojet. Obviously, any loss of traction would have further skewed the results down. FWIW, the linear "curves" look great, even if they aren't as high as you hoped.

Better-breathing exhaust usually produces higher torque at the expense of power.

Factors like pressure, temperature, humidity, etc are normally accounted for via the dyno's correction factor.

 

It REALLY makes me wonder what the Dynojet would read. I don't have access to one either as I don't know of a local shop that uses one. I know of one, but that loser doesn't pick up the phone or answer to the text messages you send him for some reason. Unless he is closed because of the Rona.

 

Very different vehicles, lots of factors, and completely anecdotal but, IIRC, most (GT500) Mustang Dyno pulls I've seen seem to lag their Dynojet counterparts by about 10%.

 

IF that is the case that would put me right at 330 which seems a bit more believable.

 

So, when we dyno our trucks (when equipped) We should turn off the vsc and traction control correct??

 

sounds like a good idea. less interference with a test.

 

I concur.

Also, if there is a smoothing factor of STD versus SAE, make sure they use SAE.

 

Due to the Automatic transmission.

 

If you haven't already, yes. For proper scientific testing.

My 35 BFG KM2's had been tested to 130.

 

What is your recommended figure?

 

Yeah my truck likes to wander around much above 85. Though I did have it close to 100 on the gps passing some slow pokes through Mexico a few weeks ago on my way to CO. I need more gearing though. It doesn’t like to pull too hard above 70 which is sad for passing people on the fwy

 

For speed? Or.....?

 

No, RPM for the rev limiter. I've become mildly proficient with tinkering in HPT recently, so I could modify that myself and then change it once the test is done.

HA!

They tuned it on the N/A calibration.. Interesting! He went the wrong way with the injector scaling initially too! But he figured out his mistake. Hehe

 

Yours is probably heavier than mine was. Had a DB lift, and that wheel tire combination, of 110 per corner. Stock 3.73 gears. Pulled pretty easily. Did wander though. Had to have delicate inputs. Was nice to watch some Porsche owner's face once. Lol

 

I wouldn't go past 5700, with boost and OEM rods. Just raise the speed limit.

 

I was waiting for your input.
