HP LOSS= (Elevation x 0.03 x HP@SEA LEVEL)/1000
Works out that 3%(0.03) times your HP= loss per 1000'
I don't have a sea level number for my car so my guestimate is:
My car dyno'd at 376.1 HP @ 2320'
376.1 x 0.03 = 11.28 HP loss per 1000'
Therefore 11.28 x 2.32 = 26.17 HP loss @ 2320'
So supposedly at sea level my car should dyno @ 402.27HP. I hope to dyno it at Jeffs this Summer so we'll see......
