ZX12R on the Dyno
In 2 hours I'm going to have my '01 ZX12R dyno'd.
Performance Mods:
Full HFM exhaust
OEM air filters modified: basically the foam is removed and now they consist only of screens
smog pump converted to crankcase vacuum pump
USB power commander
Map that matches the air intake mods
Fresh spark plugs
Fresh oil/filter
Other Mods:
Chrome wheels
Flush mount signals
Fender elim kit
Lowered 1.5 inches
MPS air shifter with auto shift box
Aftermarket dark tinted wind screen
Shinko sticky rear tire (not yet mounted)
Shinko low profile 60 series front tire (not yet mounted)
So tonight we'll see what she'll do running on leaded race gas. The guy who worked on the bike and owns the dyno says I'll pick up 5 HP if I were to run VP MR9 race fuel, but we'll see how it does on the leaded. We're hoping to see 150 on the dyno. Expecting to see atleast 145. The guy who did the work and is dynoing it says that he usually gets slightly lower results than other people claim. He's not sure if its because his dyno reads a little low (all dynos vary from each other) or because others are inflating their numbers.
So later on tonight I'll post up pics of the bike on the dyno and the results.
