IS-F dyno run @ NYIAS

[MrSo0h0o]

hey guys thought i would share this vid i took..

here at the New York International Auto Show they have an IS-F on a dyno that we can drive up to ~120mph.. let me tell you, this car sounds SICK.. i didnt know what to expect when i hopped in and gunned it(i thought i would feel the torque but it didnt work that way) but even still, the sound made me weak at the knees..

note: this was NOT me in the car.. this person bogged down in the beginning.. i think you can even hear me chuckle

sounds nice...any numbers though? since it was on a dyno and all...

nah for some reason they didnt have the dyno monitor on... plus i wasnt too focused on that since the sound was oh-so-heavenly and it was freezing out while i only had a short sleeve polo on..

ah...

would have been nice to see how much power is lost through that tranny...

Lost 84 hp, or 20%. . . . .ouch!!

[MrSo0h0o]

for those of you who have driven a car on a dyno before, do you feel the torque or is it subdued by the fact that it is on the rollers?

[bigbird]

no, since your not actually moving then theres no Gs to experianced from the Tq pushing the car foward.

very cool though, i can see these being vette killers in the near future.

^Do you realize how much 84hp is? Seriously.

Plus autos are no fun anyways...

^ 84hp is about what your car has at the wheels

[bigbird]

credit should be given where credit is due. alot of new autos these days are hybrids, clutch and all, just electronicly controlled. not sure bout this one though.
