Default 496 Dyno testing and myth busting!
Results are in. I’ve finally completed some comprehensive dyno testing of a 496HO and various exhaust systems. It’s rather lengthy so I published it on our web site. Please check it out. I spent all the time and effort for you guys. Go to www.fullthrottlemarine.com and click on high performance projects.

Love this sort of stuff. Very well done, and you accounted for some interesting variables.

Bob,

This is great testing! I'm really glad to see you running the full wet exhaust, because, as you mentioned, I think it really does skew the results running dry exhaust. Members have reported that going to dry exhaust has given them performance gains (along with huge noise gains).

I'm looking forward to more tests!

Michael
