Default toda cams dyno result

hi guys, I just dynoed the car with toda spec A2s with greddy emanage tuned to the cams
before the car makes, at that time the car had a tanabe exhaust


now it makes, changes includes: ARC single exhaust ( the car makes 178 with this exhaust and sorry, forgot to take the printout) and toda cams. It makes 200.8 without emanage tuning.


I think this particular dyno I was using reads lower than it is supposed to be, with a stock 350z makes 210s, and 220s with IHE, and an IS300 makes 180 with I/H/E and SAFC tuned.
I can't find anything wrong with the car mechanically, compression test results are: 220. 215, 212, 215. On cylinder 3 however, I did 3 consecutive tests, first time it reads 212, second time it reads 200, 3rd time it reads 197, with 7,8 minutes between each tests. Leak down tests on all cylinders came OK. Car has 46k miles, and has seen a lot of track time.
Also notice how the power keeps on going up even at peak RPM, I guess it's time for a full stand alone ECU with higher rev limiter.
If you guys think there is anything mechanically wrong with my car, I am all ears.

So I just want to make sure I see this correct.

Your before dyno was 178 and after adding an arc exhaust and the cams you now put down 200?

That's impressive, a lot better the the couple others that have tried toda cams. Congrats

That's great, keep us updated as the longevity is also a problem with these.

178 is insanely low. I'd go to another dyno to check if I were you.

If the dyno reads low, it reads low. He even mentioned that it read low for some other cars too. Dynos aren't meant to produce a number so you can post it on the internet and brag about it, they're good for comparison purposes.

That dyno is apparently calibrated to read low similar to a Mustang dyno since the stock 350z makes 210rwhp on it.

I am curious about the torque trailing off after 7000 rpm. I wonder if cam gears and some adjustments might improve it a little.

Did they give you the lift, duration, and overlap specs on the cams?

the dyno it is not important in tihs case, becuase he made a baseline run and on the same dyno, did the other runs with the cams. Look it in this way, he go 16% more power than before.
