Well i talked to a guy i have a class w/ yesterday and it turns out he builds all the motors for a performance shop down the street from my house. We were talking and he said he could hook me up w/ a dyno this weekend and he would help me fine tune my car for $30. Now i am trying to make sure i get everything w/ the car situated and checked on before going so it isn't a waste of time. I am going to check belt tension, codes, and boost leaks. Is there anything else i should check based on your past experiences. I guess i will finally see if pi$$ing away all that money was worth it


BTW ICEY2k1 will finally quit whorring up my threads w/ his dyno comments.

Dont worry about "Icey" on the cake. Worry about putting down over 300HP. Do not forget to scan and post it

 

NeeeeVVVVVVAR!!!!!

What type of dyno?

Good luck Chris and DO NOT FORGET A DISK!!!!

 

the humble maker awaits....

Good Luck!!!

 

Or a Flash Drive. I'm waiting to see this.

 

waiting

 

But the humble maker is about to meet the widow maker!!!!!


And if Alex ask me about that disk again i am going cram it up his A$$

 

if i make a video of it can one of you edit it and host it for me

 

Should we take guesses as to what the car is going to put down?

 

I'm guessing 296fwhp 309 fwtq

 

hp is in the ballpark but the torque is nowhere near, possibly 270wtq.

 

He's got a centrifugal SC dude, not a turbo, lol.


Anyways I think IF everything is working as it should he will be putting down some strong numbers. Something along the lines of 315whp and 280ft-lb. It's hard to tell though since he's got a pretty different setup than alot of people. He's (I assume) running more timing than pretty much anyone at that boost level given the W/A inj, but he doesn't have the extra revs like the guys with the JWT and yet he has that cutout which will help - So I wouldn't be too surprised if he put down even higher #s.

 

12psi... 285whp SAE

 

12 psi .... 311 whp @ 6500 rpm.... 280 wtq @ 5000 rpm

 

12PSI

automagic

315HP and 274 tq

 

5th gen (VIAS)

325 whp 283 wtq

 

well i just got back and i didn't get a turn on the dyno. They had the thing booked straight through the day and all this past week due to this race down here called Import face off. The guy jason told me he wants to try and get me in wed after the shop is closed. So i guess i have to wait till then. So flame away

Btw. You guys are low balling with your guesses ,

I say 340 whp/ 280 tq

 

290whp 270tq

 

Just being conservative.

 

Ah crap I didn't realize you were an auto. I've got to amend my guess now. 297whp 267tq.

 

/hate
I can probably go with you if you go on Wed.

Are you going to NPR for midnight madness?

 

You may be very close, I forgot he has those heavy a$$$$$ 19's. Those weigh in at least 22lbs a piece if not more and that is going to rob some horsies.

Chris is time to invest in lightweight 19s

 

Just for friendly conversation i figure i would post this thread. It is a thread of nismotech's dyno. He has basic stillen setup w/ 2.87 pulley and 2.5" exhaust and a horrible AFR. Now i don't know exactly how much of a power advantage i will have from having a good tune, headers, and 3" cuttout will give me, but i just wanted to show some proof that i am not completley retarded for assuming 350 whp.

349.999999999999999whp/280wtq.

 

i hate your stinking guts

 

Chris,

Check to make sure your VIAS isn't broke...

Have you verified your boost level is right?

 

I guess the boost level is right, but the water injection makes it read lower due to the cooler charge. I think i am getting 10 psi with it and i was getting 12.5 without. The VIAS was working last time i checked during the whole Modding fiasco.

 

 

Are you doing this today? ANSWER YOUR PHONE!!!!!

You are impossible to get in touch with.....

 

The 2.62" pulley with 100% methanol injection would be a great test on the dyno, since detonation would be easy to hear and shut down safely.

BTW, don't forget the disk~!!!!!

 

im hitting f5 and i see no dyno graphs

 

Chris disappears again FTL.

 

He said tomorrow...maybe.

He's busy with college...I'm sure most know how that goes.

 

I go to LSU too. He just doesn't know how to return phone calls.

 

where is the dyno at? what ever happened to this guy? maybe he must be very busy like me

 

No i just work about 30 hours a week and go to school 15 hours a week and work out 4 days a week. After all that i am a little tired at the end of the day and forget to check my phone

 

I don't want excuses. I want dyno.
