@@CCAutoWorks Imagine my surprise. 😄 Oh well... it went 13.000 before the converter. I don't care what it makes on the dyno if it runs 12s at the track and gaps fools on the street.
@@CCAutoWorks no shame in real numbers. Your 60E doesn't eat up as much power. So that'll help. And per my test - obviously wheels don't matter much unless you have some Bubba tires.
I agree that you can take that as a compliment that your exhaust flows as good as straight pipe, although it is fun hearing that good Ole American v8 make bald eagle sounds 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😎
See to me that does seem odd. I would have assumed a small power loss with the gear swap but i also would have thought the lighter wheels would have made it a wash. I haven't used a dyno much just track times but we all know the gear swap ratio usually offsets the power loss. Im just curious in the weight difference in the converters. The common wisdom tells us less rotating mass equals more applied power. Good video as always keep the education coming ✌️
The FTI in the truck now and the TSI I took out were similar in weight. (37-39lb range) The factory converter was 50ish lbs - you can see the power numbers didn't change when I swapped it for that tight TSI - despite the weight difference and more efficient.
@@bluecollarhotrods9781 i admit i was surprised. I didn't expect a 20 hp gain but i didn't expect to see a loss on the graph. Just goes to show its not what we think we know that the dyno tells us the truth. I had a similar finding when i swapped to an aluminum flywheel and stage 2 clutch. Made a bit more power but was slower at the track to the 330. Never completely understood it but it was explained to me as a spinning mass equation. Easier to keep the heavier mass spinning once its already moving. Revved like a motorcycle tho 😂
@@lupeavila4006 already has a Walbro 255lph, but the flex fuel sensor and tuning are coming. I have the parts and the base tune written. Just need to install everything and start data logging.
@@lupeavila4006 🤞 that would be amazing. I'm going to to do some more small weight reduction and get the suspension to actually weight transfer. I'm going to give it the best chance to run some good numbers. Installing a 2 step right now to hopefully get my launches more consistent.
@@bluecollarhotrods9781 it started at 1:20, I'm not sure if it was the 4L80E shifting. Then at 2:11. @ 2:17 it sounded like it dropped... I presume you have changed both map and maf?

Shout out to DeLand Dyno for accommodating me and letting me swap out the wheels. Their business info is in the description.
I wasn't expecting those numbers for sure

@@bluecollarhotrods9781 I feel the same way but I really would be depressed if I knew what my little 5.3 made

@@Ralf1NATOR yeah, years ago we put an aluminum flywheel and lightweight clutch in a friend's mustang. No dyno numbers, but would not 60 for $h!t
@@bluecollarhotrods9781 yep thats exactly what i ran into. Better power but less performance
@@Ralf1NATORinertia, momentum,
Do an e85 conversion add the lines and fuel pump

Your Engine was running sloppy at rolling before you went full throttle, you are running a maf and map right
@@shadowopsairman1583 I'm not sure I follow...
Yes, still MAF and MAP on the truck.

@@shadowopsairman1583 likely was shifting, then the converter locked. We ran in in 3rd - 1:1
