If anyone has seen my previous gen thread:

 

Here is a 2019, the same Dyno shop has posted this week.

 

Description shows "modified exhaust system" and "oversize over width tires/rims"

I don't believe these numbers for a minute. You should get yours tuned and let us know if this is legit.

Exactly. These 5.3 trucks put down nearly 300hp to the tire when stock.

 

If their stock dyno run only did 213, they have no idea how to dyno a truck.

 

I like how the torque peak between the 2 pictures went from 4,000rpm to 2,200rpm. Ain't no way a 5.3 or 6.2 is making over 400 ft lbs at that low of rpm without some superhcarger setup.

There's definitely some misleading and horseplay on these.  Also its a 2019 old body truck, not a new body so "technically" this thread belongs in the 14-19 section 😉

 

213hp on the baseline?  I had my 2019 old body tuned back when I had it.  It baselined a peak 267hp.  Most every other baseline I've seen of a 14-19 5.3 baselined somewhere in the vicinity of 250-280hp, depending on wheels/tires and I'm sure differences in dynos.  

 

This shop seems like they are just trying to justify whatever outrageous price they are charging people for their services.

Sorry about that. I didn't realize until I went back to confirm any modifications. I posted in the 2014-2018/19 section after that.

I have a bet in writing with the shop owner. Unfortunately he could not pay for another deal so I have not found the free time or interest to donate to this pissing match. I use other Dyno shops in the area. Unfortunately I had to deal with this shops claims after a mustang club Dyno day they recently held which took me back to their FB page and the b.s. rabbit hole...

 

I posted this on the forum to confirm I'm not crazy thinking the numbers are being scaled down for baseline and scaled up for final.

 

Thank you everyone for the feedback.

    • Oil pump noise was discussed before.  I will try to remember to record a remote start later this morning. 
    • There are probably a few threads talking about fuel mileage but this one seemed to fit the stats I have seen based on my typical local driven route but with different outcomes based on different seasons/temperatures. I have a few hundred pounds of items that consistently ride on the truck at all times such as a bak flip cover, rubber bed mat, tools and extra fuel so I would be something over 8100 lb without me in the truck. All these examples are based on a 100 mile round trip to a town plus running around town so maybe 110 to 120 miles in total for a trip. Using regular fuel and I assume it always has some ethanol in it but don't know the percentage they blend in. Also speed wise I am going at 62 mph and non aggressive driving although less speed yet if its crappy winter condition roads. I am going by an initial reset of the computer generated fuel use numbers averaged over a couple of thousand miles or so for each weather/season so they may be more optimistic then actual hand calculated numbers. Basically this is painting a picture of doing the same drive but seasonal conditions and temperature being the major variable to the end result. Oh and although I am in Alberta Canada, I am converting it to miles per US gallon so there is no confusion.    So winter time it gets cold here, no real surprise there and the roads can be clear at times but also often have packed rough snow or are are driving through loose snow ( they do a poor job of plowing the highways ) and yes this includes the extra idle engine time due to trying not to freeze ones butt off. 12.7 mpg is what I was getting during the winter months on average.    Then during the spring when it was around the freezing point and the highways are clear of snow, I was getting around 14.25 mpg.   Summer time, I have been getting around 15.15 on average but certainly some of the trips showed quite a bit better fuel mileage, so much depended on how much or little I had driven around town and number of engine restarts after sitting for a while at each location. But stating a best fuel mileage trip to town pretending that is what the truck gets on average is fooling ones self for sure !.      As I said in a different post, I had driven a 645 mile trip over a couple of days stint to a different destination then these other daily to town examples above, and was done during the summer with nice weather and not bucking a head wind, also keeping at 62 mph and its a rolling landscape type highway drive ( this isn't southern Alberta or Saskatchewan flat lands ) Hand calculated fuel mileage in this case though and it came out to 17.65
