Hey guys, I just got my car dynoed about an hour ago and with my current mod only being a CAI, having 106,455 miles on my 97 Tib FX...I am putting out 120.8 SAE horses to the wheels. I think that is pretty good!! Random, I sent u a scanned copy, please post it here if u can. My Project is going to take place on Sunday where as we are pulling the engine, rebuilding the bottom end..new rings, rod/main bearings, complete gasket set, new valve train..valves, springs, retainers, Elantra GT Intake Cam, Ported and Polished head with 3 angle valve job, port matched intake runners and plenum to a 58mm BBTB, CAI with adapted Ram Air Kit, Vitek Stage 4 Clutch, Fidanza Lightweight Flywheel. I hope these mods will give me a signifigant HP increase!! After installing these mods and breaking in the engine..im taking it back to do an after Dyno and will keep everyone posted. Thanks to everyone who helped in giving me knowledge and support.

Hehehe... I remember I dropped $75 for 3 runs once in my old Tbird just for sheets and giggles...
Put a whopping 75 horspower to the ground, but it was strange, because the dyno sheet rose to 75 and then tapered off flat all the way across.
Then I noticed I puked ATF all over the bay where the car was sitting. Oops! Tranny slippage/overheated it smile.gif

Sorry i haven't posted in a while!! To get everyone up to speed....my tib is still with the engine pulled. When we took everything apart, we noticed some things that needed attention so it threw us back a bit. To sum it all up, we found that my Exhaust Manifold was cracked, had to get a new one, needed to replace both axle seals, leaking alot, and i needed to replace the idler pulley for the timing belt, bearing seized. That is really all the bad news, cuz i am just having to wait for these parts to come in. They will all arrive tomorrow then it should all be put back together my Sat/Sun. On a good note...for those who are interested...my Fidanza Flywheel fit perfectly...so to answer the question in regards to which flywheel is for who...whoever has the beta 1..the Fidanza Flywheel part number that should fit your car is 193241, which is what i got. The other Flywheel that Fidanza makes will fit the Beta II's. Anyway....talk to you all later!!!

yes, this is my car stock, with 106+ thousand miles on it and only a CAI. The engine is getting put back in the car as we speak and the after dyno will follow after i have broken it in.

If you went to DynoEdge here in ABQ, there is one more Tiburon on-file in there.
Ask to see teh 139whp SAE run
Your Air/Fuel ratio is in the basement, as-usual for one of these motors. Pick up an S-AFC and you'll pick up another 5-6 wheel horsepower on your setup. If you're not sure about that, just ask the DynoEdge people to show you my dyno runs from first run to last run.
