Well I finally dynoed my car while I was at Maxus. I managed to make 262whp and 263wtq after 3 runs. As you can see, the A/F is really rich due to just having an FMU. This was done with the cutout open, and on 6psi. I'm pretty happy with the numbers, since with a good tune I should be able to get 280+ hp. Let me know what you guys think!

 

Congrats! That's great for 6psi.

 

nice...for 6psi untuned thats really good! get an SAFC

 

very impresive, now tune that baby and raise the boooooost.... great numbers

 

congrats brad. can't wait to see the car again!

 

simply awsome congrats all your hard work paid off wonderfly

Is your Variable intake working? On my 1992 SE with the t3/to4e (60 trim), the power did not fall at all until throttle was lifted (6500 rpms). This was the same case when it was tuned as un-tuned. It looks like your power falls as much as 30 horsepower. That ins't until (6500 rpms either). You can check out my dyno here:

Don't mind the horrible low end. It was due to an awful knock sensor related issue. Otherwise, your peak numbers are great on 6psi. I remember seeing the pictures of your manifolds and such. Great job!

 

nice..........

 

how much did you pay for your setup?

 

Good number and good run with you Brad.

 

nice car, saw it personally at Maxus and on the dyno.

 

wow, very nice numbers for 6psi. the car must really pull well congrats.

 

As far as I know my variable intake is working. Is there any way to tell other than dyno charts?

Super96Max - I paid probably around 3K for all of the parts for my setup, including mandrel bends, couplers, and gauges. I put it together myself, so I saved quite a bit on labor.

Thanks for the comments guys!

 

nice #'s Brad. Did you do a comparison of your cuttout open and shut?

 

I also would like to know how you can tell if the Variable Intake is functioning properly or not.

 

Take the hood off and watch for the cylinder to move.







Or just hook and LED up to the + on the battery and activated ground on the solenoid so it goes off when the Solenoid turns on)

 

Nice numbers. The AF is not horrible, just really rich at the end. Nothing an S-AFC couldn't fix. The drop in power at the end may be because the AF ratio.

 

No, I figured it wasn't worth it since I only got 3 runs. I did do a comparison in the 1/4 mile though, and with the cutout closed I ran 14.5 @ 97 and with it open I ran 14.09 @ 102.

 

with that trap time that's a 13.7 run right there with better traction.

 

your running stock exhaust with a cat?

thats awsome

 

the 97mph run was with a cat and 2.5" warpspeed b-pipe. The dyno and 102mph run was with my 3" cutout.

I'm hoping to break into 13's soon, I know for sure the car is capable of it. I just need to learn how to launch it. The 102mph run was with a 2.23 60'.

 

what muffler? straight through or stockish style?

just throw some slicks on it launch it at 5k and without trying youll run low 13s 102mph ive seen cars go 12.9 with 102mph im not saying your car is but its possible

Yeah, what Ice posted, its a magnaflow straight-though. Next summer I may invest in some drag radials, but I doubt I'll go with slicks. I can't afford to be replacing trannies and axles.

 

im kinda supprized a straighthrew muffler with 2.5b would be such a huge restiction 5mph is alot

i here ya on breakin a few trans

 

That is what I thought too. I have a 3" down pipe, 3" test pipe, and 2.5" Greddy sp2. While gathering parts for the turbo I figured that having the 3" piping all the way to the 2.5" catback would not be much of a restriction, at least at lower boost levels.

With the cat back in place I trapped 102. With an open 3" down pipe I trapped 106 and saw almost a full psi more boost. The turbo spooled much harder and faster too. With the 2.5" catback in place I really can't hear the turbo at all. With the open down pipe the thing whistles like no other. I would love to be able to drive my car with the open down pipe all the time but it is ungodly loud.

 

Great numbers brad.

You aren't going to have to worry about replacing transmissions and axles with slicks and 270ish whp/tq.

Also with slicks there's no law saying you have to tach it to 5000 and dump it. You could launch off idle, babying the trans and axles, and still pull better 60s and 1/4 times than you will with DRs.

DRs are a total waste of money for the drag strip imho. Jime made a really good post in the 1/4 forum about DRs vs slicks. Don't waste your money on DRs.
