hey guys
i have a quick question im going to dyno my fc tommerow at school.
i want to know where is the best place to hook the tie down to.. ive been under the car multiple times but i never actually paid attention to the rear of the car to see if it had a tow hook or something.. ive never dyno'd a car before

sigh..so my base line for my build.
ok my 5th and 6th ports aren't working.
i dynoed at 100hp and 89torq with 93 and octane booster(for some reason i get better mpg with it) with a 4gear run up to 7500rpm

then TO PROVE THAT YOU DONT Gain **** by revving to 8 k i did a 3rd gear run at 8k
i made 100 hp and 83 ftlbs of torq.

just for ***** and giggles
its a 88 s4 vert
with msd 6al and a kn N air filter
and electric fan
and brand new clutch.

so your ports are stuck closed? I dyno'd my old car with the ports closed and then with the ports wired open. It was about a 20whp difference and much different torque curve

there not stuck cause the actuate by hand... the previous **** ... who had the car took the cats out and hollowd the first cat.
so much ghettoness anywho im saving up to do the electric conversation i have the pump all i need is the msd.

With the aux. ports working, there will be a good chunk of HP to re-gain, but the manifold design will make HP take a nosedive after ~6.5k RPM. There's also no point to running 93 octane with octane booster. The engine was designed to run 87 octane, so anything else is a waste of money. There's no power to be gained by running higher octane fuel.

yea i kno this the only reason i put the "good stuff" cause i get better gas mileage for some reason.
and i was thinking of taking that plastic air hose out and replacing it with a metal pipe that i can weld up. and place the air filter in a cooler area or build a cold box.

cold air intake down where the washer bottle is

tow "loop" in the front too

if you wire them open it'll be totaly top end, like 4500+. you wont have any power below that. You'll make much larger peak numbers tho...

yea if it didnt rain all this ******* week up here i woulda did that.
oh well next dyno day im hoping to have a 6port turbo ready to go

if you get a safc and tune some fuel out to run atleast 12.5-13 ratio, you will gain some power throughout the power band.
