hey guys.....today we had a supra dyno meet in long island and I strap the LS....made decent power....241RWHP and 246RWTQ, car rev all the way to 6500rpm before the rev limiter kicked in!! AFS light was blinking the entire time i was on the dyno, i guess it was wondering how come the front wheels arent spining and the speed sensor was sensing speed!!

Awesome! I'm not certain about this but it seems to me that that is a very high percentage of power reaching the wheels....translation, the tranny is extremely efficient. I wonder if the pre-04 trannys are the same way.

Did you manually shift it to 4th gear or keep it in drive.
I assume you had it in power mode. Did you hit the rev limiter in every gear?
I guess that answers my previous post about redlining the engine since you clearly chose to go to the rev limiter.. WOW...
Is your LS completely stock?
Your AFS light was blinking because the car was so far from being level it could not correct the lighting enough to balance it.. ( my guess anyways)
Nice POST.. good info..

hey man...i didnt have the car in the power mode as it only changes the shfting patterns, my car is completely stock. I manually shifted in to 4th, ran it till the rev limiter kicked in...around 6500rpm!! AFS light was blinking cause it didnt sense the front wheels spining and the speed sensor was picking up speed!!

Interesting.
Based upon the rated HP, that's a pretty good number for an auto tranny(assuming this was a Dynojet). The rule-of-thumb 15% drivetrain loss on Dynojets are almost always referring to manual transmission cars which don't lose as much as an automatic with its torque converter.
That number tends to support Toyota's 290 HP claim much moreso than it does the revised 278 HP (or whatever it was) that they posted for the latest LS430 due to the change in how the HP measurement was taken.
