Having a dyno at your disposal has a few advantages, one of which being unlimited time to play around and see what yields the most power. So we got to messing with my '05 Viper with 9400 miles.
Started out by picking up a K&N Intake, Corsa exhaust and an SCT Handheld/ProRacerPackage. Total investment was around $1100 since I bought them used.
First a baseline pull with the updated flash from Dodge:
Tune only, stock intake, stock exhaust:
Then we'll throw the intake on, and put the stock tune back in for those who order a K&N but don't tune it:
Now let's tune it with the intake:
Finally, how about throwing the exhaust on and tuning it some more:
Composite graph of the before and after:
Now all of the above results are presented via a Dynojet 224x with the SAE (Industry standard) correction factor with smoothing on 5 (This eliminates any aliasing error or sensor input error). Just to illustrate how dyno results can be manipulated, here's some free "keystroke" horsepower via STD and Uncorrected "Correction" factors.
STD:
Uncorrected:
Now if we wanted to look at what the car would do at the track at that given moment, the uncorrected numbers are the numbers the car is actually making at that given time based on the atmospheric conditions. The SAE numbers correct it down to the standard temperature, humidity and pressure to make a more fair comparison between dynos. Otherwise those of us at sea level in the northeast would always make the most power, we already run the fastest times!
Hope this might help others make decisions on where to spend their money when first modding their SRT10.
