Injen Dyno Test #2 on a Stock Car
So after having several bumped appointments over the last couple weeks (and numerous PMs), the second dyno test finally happened yesterday evening. The ONLY difference from my baseline circumstances was that it was about 10 or so degrees warmer (did not capture humidity and wind for the baseline so I did not capture it last night). Fog covers were placed back on for this 2nd test, as well as only 91 oct CA Chevron.
The first run was conducted with the intake cool enough to grasp (compared with the infamous best run from the first test):

2nd run and AFR:

3rd run and AFR:

So best HP gain was about 6, and best TQ was about 2. Unfortunately, the peaks did not occur on the same run. It seems that as the intake got hotter, the HP dropped and the TQ increased. I'm gonna ceramic coat the pipes and cover them with heat-reflective shields, to better regulate the pipes from heating up. I will NOT be running anymore dyno tests with just the Injen on, so stop PMing me for info. requests now.

Thanks for the info. It's always good to get as many independent dynos of performance parts for our cars as possible.

Thank you for coming out and showing your results, you have a completely stock car, so all Injens claims have been proven wrong.
No one should bash this guy, it's not his fault, he just saved you all alot of money and time thinking you would really see 14whp on a stock car.

To clarify, the first test result (best run) was posted above in the first image, compared with the best HP run for the second test. It shows the +2 hp and
-3 tq that some people knew compared with the baseline runs. The best run from the baseline was 262 hp and about 212 tq.
