This is the procedure that was used on my 2006 coupe at 19 miles on the odometer after the Paxton was installed. I do not know whether it is useable on the '08. If Mark J. from Woodhouse reads this, hopefully he will jump in and say whether it is safe to use the same procedure on an '08.

Warm up the car and drive train on the dyno for a couple miles at 60MPH. Then do a calibration pull in 4th gear for the dyno, 2500 – 6000 RPM. This further warms the car's fluids and tires to prevent slippage on the rollers. After a 15-20 min. cool down the car is dynoed. All pulls are done in 4th gear and from 2500 – 6000 RPM. This does not hurt the engine as the factory does dyno checks on the cars the same way before they are released.

It was to the wheels and all stock. We now have irrefutable proof that the blue is the fastest color :D

I dyno'd at another dyno and made 3 less whp (534whp) than a 2008 with full Bellangers (537whp)...it was SSG.;)

I also dyno'd against a stock 2008 Viper back to back (both stock) and on this dyno (Corvette's of Dallas) I made 22whp more than the other car. (524whp vs 502whp).

Once again, shows the variability of different dyno's, but the strength of the blue cars.
