Finally dyno'd my FD.

I finally got my car on the dyno. I'm happy with what it put down, now I just need to tune it. My mods are in the sig

BTW: this run was also at 12PSI. This one had the highest HP, one of the other runs made 286Ft.Lbs. with slightly lower HP. The other funny thing is that it made 319 HP at 10 PSI but the torque was down about 20 Ft. Lbs.

Very nice hp you pulled. What was the temperature and air/fuel ratio when you put your car on the dyno?

It was about 60 out that day. as for the A/F they didnt have a wideband so I don't know. I am going to a different shop in a few weeks that has a wideband to tune it after I get back from Detroit in a few weeks.

r u using base maps for the APFC... or was it pretuned.. ?
this is encouraging as one of my FD is undergoing the same mods in addition to Efini Ypipe and pulley kit...hoping my upcoming dyno run yields good numbers as yours

Very nice numbers for your mods - nice to see a FD actually put down some power with fewer mods -I've seen those same numbers from somebody with a streetport, intake, dp, and catback at 12 psi. Get a decent IC and you'll have 335 rwhp or so.

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. right now the ignition is stock, with NGK 7's & 9's, and Magnecor wires. I'm planning on going to 9's all the way around and possibly an HKS twin power.

Yeah, those ARE interesting numbers for your mods. I've seen less hp from a tuned FD with a PFS PMS and the PFS IC!

Are you still using the base maps in the PFC?

Is it just me or is that a HUGE dip in HP at the transition? It seems like your dropping by ~70hp. What's your boost at transition?

Otherwise pretty good HP #'s with a stock IC, did you have a big fan on it?

Yeah I noticed that too and thought it to be a bit odd. I usually get about 6-7PSI at transition, I know it should be about 9...BUT. I bought the car in St. Louis and didnt notice a low transition, and as soon as I got it back home (Colorado 5000ft elevation) I started to notice it being lower. I have since changed all the vac hoses and it is still the same. So I am kind of thinking that it may be something to do with the altitude.

my experience on this forum shows that full exhaust (mp), intake, and ecu = about 300rwhp. I wonder why yours are so high..tell us the secret...come'on

Yeah, you've got me jealous. I got 285 with an intake, DP, MP, CB, PowerFC @ ~12psi, and a frount-mount IC (not too helpful when you're sitting still).

I thought that was a bit low, and this confirms it. Looks like a thorough inspection of my turbo system is in order.

I didn't notice that.

Hey Dr Wankel, you should try adjusting your prespooler some. It's possible that even part of the prespool control system is shot, too.

Damn, those are some nice numbers for your mods. It would be interesting to see a dyno after swapping to a MP instead of the hi-flo, to see what kind of loss you get from retaining a cat.
