Dyno'd my car today... SRT6
Today, I along with a few other people organized a car club dyno event. I had heard and read that the SRT6 will no dyno past 4,800 rpms, at that mark, the engine management will kick in. I paid for my dyno slot just after i picked up the car almost a month ago. Then i learned about the SRT6 issue on the dyno, but decided what the hell, it was only $50 bucks for 3 pulls on the dyno, why back out. I had already gone to the track and ran 13.38 @ 103 mph. So i knew the power was there.
I told the guy running the cars on the dyno that there might be a problem with the way the car dyno's and if there is a problem "oh well". Just run it as best as he can and it is what it is as far as what the numbers that come out of the dyno.
I've only had the SRT6 for 1 month, and its still bone stock from what i can tell. The prior owner appeared to be DCX and the car was leased so i don't believe it was modded in any way.




What did i get on the dyno??...

Although the car would down shift if you rolled on the gas too quickly, which would make the car buck and the dyno run would have to be stopped.
I was expecting 220whp as it was what some people had posted on this site when they attempted to dyno.
Here are my dyno sheets...


I don't know how accurate these numbers are... but it did not appear that any of the engine management kicked in or traction control

the automatics don't have dyno problems, only the 6 speeds have issues on 2wd dyno.
Get the pulley and ECU upgrade from Speed inovations, then get a dyno. should put down 400 hp.

BTW what was your max rpm?

Hmmm... i didn't think of that... maybe i'll try it next time, but all in all i was happy with the results. We could not clip on to any of the spark plug wires, so the tach was not reading on the dyno. The results were speed calculated, which according to the shop is a accurate form of dynoing... so we couldn't get a tach read out on the dyno sheet nor torque numbers. However, i do know that all 3 of the runs that counted, it was from roughly 2,800 rpms to redline... on 2 other runs, the car downshifted and the run was stopped.

$5k ?? Where did that come from?

i would of probably bought the Renntech kit off Eracer, i've met him in the past and he is local... but i missed out on the "F/S" thread.
how much is a PCM from chrysler? reason being that i would like to buy one, flash it to the car. then send that one out to be flashed by SI, then if i needed warrenty work on the car, i could swap out pulley's and pcm's.

Congrats on the numbers again. I told ya she put down 290.
Also is there any ETA when CSC will be back up?
