Title: Dyno Runs
Post by: TLRam1 on December 04, 2007, 06:59:04 PM
Has anyone Dyno'ed the Magna 3rd gen. with a DD shim kit and what were the results compared to a stock dyno run or close to stock? Somewhere I read it added 8 HP (maybe-Tips and tricks?) but looking for first hand knowledge.

After all the ........Any dyno info you have to share would help. LOL :P

Well dont think your going to get 8hp gain from jets/shims.  Honda has done a great job squeezing out most of the HP available.  78-80 ish range is about normal for stock, 82-84 for jets/shims, K&N, and aftermarket mufflers.
To gain more you are going to have to dig into the engine, ie port & polish the heads, cams, etc.

Greg, are those numbers at the rear wheel or out of the engine?

Yes, I thought the numbers were a little skewed from where I read the info.....of course I may have misread also, noooooo way!  :-P

Thats why I was looking for first hand knowledge.
