buddies car on the dyno.

Furious · 10-15-2003, 03:09 PM

my buddies dyno results, but it was a bad day , we couldnt get boost to hold proper and the air/fuel mixtures were giving me and him headaches (still not configured right and it explains the low numbers and shakey power curves) all in all we actually lost power over the last time we went to the dyno. =

nice picture of the outside, i can honestly say that this car is done tastefully.

no good pics of the ICE but its pretty much loaded Playstation, system is done etc etc.

you might be saying 13.60 sec car isnt that good. but considering he has done every mod himself (i mean everything minus the paint work for the skirts) and is still tunning it its very damn good. i think his next step is to swap out that d16 engine for a b18 that will give him way more power

yer thats a pretty good time for someone doing all the mods by himself, one of my mayes did up a MY02 subaru wrx and got it running 9.7 on the quarter, he has got some nice stuff under the hood, always wants to show me over and over again

Nice.

. . . and you're right, that is tastefully done.

By thew way, what are his trap speeds at the track?

daniel318is · 10-16-2003, 07:24 AM

13.60 @ 95. . . ? Was he having problems with the boost during those times?

Furious · 10-16-2003, 12:23 PM

im not sure. but that was a while back. his dyno graph was from a dyno run he did last week. from what i gather he should have been hitting 100mph to be perfect for his setup. but i think he had lightened his car by taking seats, stereo, spare etc out.

With a 13.60 ET, he should be hitting at least 100mph. Those numbers indicated that he either had problems with the tune (i.e. fuel, ignition, timing, etc.) that was causing the power output to fluctuate or that he had issues that made him back out of the throttle at some point.
