bradyzq Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Uh, 30+ ft-lbs increase with just an exhaust system change? That don't pass the giggle test. No it wouldn't. But, in addition to the exhaust, a 6-2-1 header was added, as well as more timing and smaller main jets, which look like they took away a rich bog. So, it sounds much more possible, especially when, as previously noted, one notices that torque is in Nm not lb*ft. Actually, I'm kind of expecting similar gains when I finally get my L24 on my dyno in the spring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katman Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Look again - the graph is in Newton-Meters, not lb-ft. 20Nm is about 14.7 lb-ft. Doh! Thanks for that correction. Problem with surfing at home is my computer glasses stay at work. 15-ft lbs with an exhaust change (even with header vs stock manifold) is a lot, but considering the jet change that's easily possible. I see 10-15 ft-lbs murdered on the dyno easily by running fat, even on a near stock L24 ITS motor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
