Awesome! I would expect to see a fair increase with the new TB, as I'm sure that's the bottleneck now.

 Run was delayed due to dyno malfunction so it was done on another dyno. So they said they will do throttle body run on same dyno as today to see difference throttle body makes . Then it will go onto original dyno for a total power increase result as different dynos can read differently. todays dyno was old rolling road dyno across the road from Genie at rego pollution clearance workshop. So I will be able to tell you how much throttle body makes then how much overall . Oh and these arrived last week . Just need cams from UK with 278 duration to arrive.  ;D

Hey motec, are those sprockets made specifically for this application? I'm surprised to see these being available for an M-100!?

The videos are impressive... I hope they had a fan set up there. :)

Hi Tim yes they are for M-100.985 I have bought billet cams from the UK in AMG 278 duration profile from there 375hp 6.9 engine package. These will be fitted to engine with cams will clean up heads while doing this. As for fan on dyno I was standing next to it.  :) Throttle body should be on tomorrow and ready for next dyno run.  ;D

sounds great Motec, and they look the part too.
did i understand right, the dyno run was not done on the same dyne as 'pre op'. this would mean the results mean nothing?
hopefully they could redo the run for you on the original dyno so you know what you got out of the exhaust, otherwise it remains a mystery!
one way or the other, at least the next dyno will tell you what you've got in total, no matter what dyno is used.

Hi Nathan some numpty broke the dyno brake yesterday morning with a 1500hp alco blown small block Monaro burnout car. So yesterday was done on old rolling road dyno which is designed for emissions testing. I decided to remove restriction of air cleaner as all yesterdays test means is base line figure for throttle body test today so I can say throttle body made x amount of power. Then when original dyno is up and running will retest car. With air cleaner on like original test which will be definitive test as same dyno both with air cleaner fitted . That will show how much extractor/exhaust/throttle body makes in total power increase at wheels and corrected at the flywheel. Car is no where near as loud as last car most noise was from being in building.  :)

Hi Motec,

Have just replaced the system on the new Gold 6.9, here are some pics

the old exhaust that was removed was under sized, it was 1 & 3/4 inch suited to a 450 motor. common mistake!

I stuck to original sized pipe of 2" with 2 X 2.5" hot dogs replacing the centre muffler and a straight through 2.5" sports muffler at the rear. and of course chrome twin pipes to finish.

looks very similar to yours!

cheers

the old exhaust is all stainless so I will keep it just in case it might be needed later on another car.

Hi Rob apart from mine being 2.5 inch its the same. Exhaust removed was same size as yours 4.5 litre exhaust but car still made 230.1hp at rear wheels with this exhaust . Once I can get back on original dyno we will see what extractors/2.5 inch duel exhaust/ 92mm throttle body makes to engine output at rear wheels and fly wheel corrected power standard on my 6.9 was 288.9hp . :)

Hi Mark this system is a lot quieter than old cars system . It was very loud not much quieter than open exhaust.  :)
