Great post. I recently installed the Eco tune on my 2006 kj. I can't say that I notice a great deal more power either. But... The economy and drivability is well worth it. I have a kn filter in addition. I would love to see a dyno comparison with that mod. Thanks for your service. Chris |

I know that the HOT Tune shows results at the track...see sig |

Will you be going back to the dyno? Check my dyno results in my old posts in 2007/2008. Dyno results are often not that useful for absolute readings, but comparisons are very useful. DOC |

Army Ranger, Your power and torque numbers look correct, but there a few things to note. How the testing is completed makes a big difference in output. I am not sure what gear you were in for the test run, but 3rd gear (OD off) is best for making pulls on the dyno. You data shows peak power and torque at 3000rpm, which is in line with the data we have posted on our website for that rpm. Our data is at the engine flywheel and since yours is at the wheels you can assume a 15% loss through the driveline. Since you have the eco tune the torque is limited to 270 ft-lb and power is down from 176hp at 3000rpm to about 160ish. If you can get back on the dyno, try it in 3rd gear (od off) and start the pull at about 1650rpm. Press pedal about 60% and then progress to full throttle. This feathering of the throttle shut prevent the torque converter from unlocking. You may want to test throttle progression on the road to get the feel for the unlock point prior to going on the dyno. Hopefully this is helpful. GDE |

Another reason you may be down on power could be the carpet getting in the way. When monitoring my throttle position signal and mashing the go pedal I see around 80% throttle and with the floor mat removed around 93%. Just a thought. |

Good input from everyone, keep in mind this pull was made in mid February. I'll be back to the dyno when I get all this winter diesel out of my tank. I can see my MPG picking up every time I fill up so it won't be long. To GDE, it was 3rd gear, I'll try OD off and slow progression of throttle next time. Very insightful about the floor mat, I'll check that for sure. |
