Question 05 A/T Many Bolt-Ons - Dyno @ 195.8WHP - Dyno Chart Included

Here is the dyno chart:



04 A/T ECU Swap (Hondata Reflash)
APEXi AFC NEO Controller
Injen Cold Air Intake
DC Sports Header
Tanabe Medallion Touring Catback Exhaust
Random Technology Catalytic Converter
Skunk2 Camshafts Stage 1
Unorthodox Ultra SS Pulleys
Hondata Heatshield

There were three "base" dyno's done. The wheels were left on the machine. The "torque" doesn't look right to me, isn't it way to low? I was told I have low torque due to the Skunk2 Camshafts (I don't want to pay to have the stock camshafts swapped back in if that isn't the case).

Could the dyno test be wrong, what's your opinion guys?

I don't understand what you mean by "There were 3 base dyno's done". If so where is it? Or what did you get for stock whp/wtq?

Your dyno looks like a RSX dyno to me.

He just gave me the best one I guess...he put it in my car in the box with the parts I installed, maybe he gave me the wrong one! That would be dumb!

Why is it HP/TRQ vs MPH and not RPM? I've never seen that before.

That chart looks weird. Maybe you should have them re-dyno it.

They have a Skunk2 Camshafts Stage 1 for an AT TSX? If so how much was that.. I thought camshafts were only for MT.. maybe I am wrong...

camshafts go into the engine. It's what part of what makes a DOHC or a SOHC. The C as in Camshaft. It doesn't matter what tranny it is.

i believe the tsx cam gears are also adjustable so doesnt make a difference in getting aftermarket ones. From my understanding for the tsx to fully utilize the camshafts you need to get rid of the DBW.

The torque looks too low. I got better torque with just a comptech header, comptech icebox and UR pulleys. Nice WHp though. Double check to make sure that the one posted is your dyno.

I don´t see what removing DBW would help in us using cams?

what we need to run cam´s and get the most out of them is the same thing we need for every other tuning and that is a standalone ecu!

I am very much thinking about going for a set of Skunk2 stage2´s and just tune it fully when a ecu becomes available.

also that whp number is probably a little lower then that 195whp. that sudden spike in the end of the dyno is from the torque converter locking up, a/t tsx´s often do that and read a little higher then what they really put out?

By getting rid of the DBW, we can run something like the K-pro where you can program the ecu.

However, i dont think hondata is going to touch the TSX's ecu.

I'm running the 04 ecu, if they ever create the k-pro kit, would the car still work properly if they tune the 04 ecu on an 05 tsx since they can't crack the code for the 05 a/t?

Yes, if and only if Hondata release the K-Pro for TSX, then you can fine tune your car without problems.

No...seriously why is the base Speed (MPH) and not RPM? You went up to 110 MPH to do this dyno? There would also be drops in whp when you shifted gears. This dyno is fake.
