From your experience, how much of a difference will a 90* air temp and a 60* air temp make on the dyno?

So you got that heat exchanger fitted and working - does that mean they are available now for the public or still being fabbed?

They are available to the public but have a 10 day ship time. We now build them in house and we build when they are ordered. If you don't mind waiting, then order it now. If you do, then wait a few weeks and we should have some on hand and ready to ship. We are trying to keep stock on every product, it's just taking a little more time than we thought.

I'm not too worried about the 60* vs. 90* air temp. I worry more about the fans and air flow that the dyno has. If it's 60* inside the shop and they have 2 POS fans, then a shop with 90* temps and proper cooling with yield the better gains.

Here is what a few degrees in temps can do. Car was setup the same way with the same dyno guy...

That is a significant difference in power with just a few degrees change IMO.

#'s are looking good so far. LET is really brining this car to a whole new level.

heat is a killer, but we are fortunate to have liquid intercoolers that with a little dry ice can chill the intake charge considerably I need to get some datalogging done to see just how much the temps drop. Nitrous works well too, but more expensive.

The reason I ask about the air temp on the dyno is because of the numbers you had vs. the numbers I had.

With dynojet corrections, you made a few more HP with that car. BUT, I was in 90*+ air temps, high humidity, and LAME cooling in the shop. They had one fan that likely didn't help much at all, especially the way the shop was setup.

Thanks for the info!

BTW - I apologize for asking the temp on the first one. I didn't see the temp on the bottom because that orange doesn't show up well on my monitor.

With my stock HE, the car makes 35 more whp in winter. So, a 90* day is going to hurt the performance over a 25* day.

Here is another graph....look at the difference in temps....nothing has changed on the car.

I can't wait for it now. After speaking with Erick, I'm chomping at the bit.

Report when you can Erick.

Also I just noticed 37 members in the SRT6 section on a Friday night. I just got out of the hospital, what's everyone else's excuse?

I have gained 12 pounds in 5 days/since the operation. I feel like *** and now more of it.

I want to install my train horns in the front of the Crossfire.
www.hornblasters.com It's time to take measurments. Since I have had SRT6, soccer moms have tried to end me a few times. It's time to fight back.

Well, that answers the question of why I could only get a 13.36 out of my car stock... Every time I took it to the track it was in the high 90s with 80-100% humidity...

13.36... That is the SLOWEST time on dragtimes.com for a stock SRT ...

I did run an 8.4@85 in the 1/8 last weekend, so that should be a sub 13 second 1/4... Probably a 12.8-12.9 which is more like it...

Do you have an A/M Intake or other mods?
