Used 98 octane Fuel.

 

thats it?

 

What country are you in?

 

Seems low with a CAI & Tune, even with an automatic.

My 263 rwhp bone stock with a manual was considered on the low side of normal. I'm hoping that the fact that it was 6 month old gas along with stabil in the tank was partly responsible for my low number.

 

No its not low.
You just can't compare it to most other dynos.
1. It is in 3rd gear (thats wrong)
2. It is a dyno that few people are familiar with. (all dynos are a little different)
3. It is a comparison for his car to others on that dyno and future mods on his car.

 

Is that a common dyno down under?
What does 98 octane translate to in the USA?

 

Oz is short for Australia

 

Yeah i know its a little low but she is still new and a auto tuned for 95oct and was running a little rich. give her a few more months to wear in and start to push her a bit more till she gets about 260rwhp.

 

You know it could be the dyno down here is very different cause there were heaps of other cars arround the same rwhp some even lower.

Pontiac 454 did 264rwhp

A worked 67 mustang 289 did 204rwhp

A mustang 390 did 227rwhp

corvette 350 did 206rwhp

A mustang 351 cleveland did 265rwhp

so not sure as i have not taken her to the track yet but seem to be doing a 1/4mile in about 13.7 sec or so and a 0-100km [arround 60mph] in about 5.5 sec

 

That's why I said you can't compare it to other dynos.
Comparing it to the other cars on the same dyno like you did is way way to go.
That's why I stated that it is not low HP.

 

yeah compared to the others the only things that beat me were the big block guys, A new monaro [gto] with 5.7 litre , air, cams and extractors. Only managed 316rwhp so not bad cosidering.

 

Gotta do the dyno in 4th gear

 

Here's a link, seems our posted octane runs a little lower....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_rating

...or is it the Corialis effect???..........

 

if you ever watch top gear...jeremy clarkson always refers to the petrol in the states as limp wristed and the petrol in europe as jungle juice always got a kick out of that but its true

 

There are a couple of petrol stations in sydney that sell 100 octane at about $1.50 a litre.which is real go go juice.
