I month or so back I decided to install a larger radiator to help with my engine cooling problems. I figured, since I was going to have the radiator out of the engine compartment it might be a good time to do the lower pulley. Anyway, I put on the 6lb lower and chnged my top to a 4lb. Went to the dyno and A/F was way off and power down. I expected this might happen so I borrowed a chip from a buddy who is running the same set up. The A/F was much improved but the power was still down (with 4 lbs more boost). I decided to run with a 2lb upper and a 6lb lower and figured I would have my chip burned for that setup. Today I got the Predator in and couldn't wait to try it, so I took my car to the Dyno.
I will attach 2 dyno sheets. The first is my dyno with the Predator (Run 31) base pullied program and (run 24) my last pull before the lower pulley install. Max power is down 33 and torque stayed about the same (with 2lbs more boost). The A/F reading is from a bung located just before the passanger side Cat. Some might say I lost power because the car is running richer....but look at the next dyno. This dyno was with some adjustments from the predator to lean it out. I tried a bunch of diferent combos and the A/f was anywhere between 11.2 & 11.8 but power never improved.
There are 2 guys running uppers and lowers that I am friends with. They both saw a significant increase in Tourqe and neither of them went backwards in power. Any ideas on what is going wrong?????
Thanks in advance for your help.
