My dyno on the Caliber SRT-4
Hey guys just got done having my car tuned and wanted to share the dyno results with all of you.
This first one is a race gas pump gas mix
This one is just regular gas
If you have questions and comments post them.

For those who arent that familar with the Caliber SRT4 stock it makes 285 Hp usually most dynos come in at 265-270...I unfortunently didnt have a dyno before I added all my parts. I did have one before tuning and we were at 350 before. I'm really impressed though with how everything came out. Still not at 500 HP but I can get there easily now.

Mostly just tuning. Right now Boost goes from about 22 psi and holds at 21. My numbers would have been even better but my NGK spark plugs were defective so we had to put the stock ones back in. It caused a few issues doing the race gas tune. But I'm right on target to reach 500 HP this summer.

With my new clutch and flywheel that gets rid of the dual mass flywheel (any my new engine mounts)I have noticed that my uncontrolable torque steer is no longer there. Right now I have all seasons with the stock 19 inch rims and I was able to get a 0-60 time of 4.5 seconds and I know I could do a lot better. That was with traction control and everything still on and it was only around 48 at the time. I thought not having LSD would be a big deal after having it on my cobalt but after these recent upgrades I dont think it really matters. This new clutch is just amazing!

Well I paid about 27,000 for the car fully loaded. Given this was closer to when they first came out and were rare. Most likely now in the low 20's. I have no idea how much I have spend on parts I know its way over $4,000. Install on the stage 1 and 2 and the headgasket and studs and tune and dyno was about 2,7000.
Thanks man, yeah the new big turbo kit is all I need to reach over 500 hp and they just came out. I'm also going to go with a methanol injection sometime soon and that should help get more power also.
No I dont have an videos yet. Just got all this done this weekend and havent had time. I probably will this weekend.
