Alright guys, I ended up taking my EVO over to Lucas of English Racing and he hooked me up! It did end up being the CAM sensor. Once we figured that out, the rest was gravy. My car runs so smooth now and damn the thing pulls like a *****! Thanks Lucas, Arron, Jeff and all at ER! You guys ROCK!

 

Not a problem Darrell. And you got all your power back on a "normal" NW dynojet.

To make one statement about what to expect, my stock 2.0 makes 496 at 23psi with the same turbo and basic setup as Darrell. Darrell made 506 at 24ish yesterday.

 

Thats great news D!! Glad you got it all sorted you are in good hands with those guys!

There are some statements in this thread and I think really support the use of uncorrected Dynojet numbers I think. Maybe not so much when its REALLY extreme temps one way or the other, but altitude where the car "lives" I think is something that pleads for the case. If I lived in the depths of Hell, my car would make the same corrected numbers as anyone else with the same mods, but I would be far less uncorrected. Then again Hell isnt sea level so maybe it would pickup some from that

 

I agree. The dyno numbers in ABQ are extreme. I dont really like to use them I prefer uncorrected as the corrected numbers are just too high.

 

Mitch, funny thing is that when I got here in Portland, one tuning shop put my EVO on the dynojet right away and it only made 367 uncorrected hp. That is the HP that I drove from Alb to Portland with. Kind of mis-leading since the ALB corrected factor showed me at 511hp on a dynojet. But I do appreciate your ALB tuning as I definately would not have been able to make it out here without you. Now I tuned at 506 uncorrected hp value! Awesome.

Aarron, it was great meeting with all of you guys. Such a cool bunch of guys you have in the shop! My car does feel like a whole new beast. Seriously it pulls really hard! I've never felt it pull like that ever. I really love it now. I gave my friend a ride when we got home and he said his vision started to blur when I gunned it LOL. Thanks again and I recommend any EVO's up here in the NW to visit English Racing!

 

I decided I covet your UICP...the JDM sectioning is HAWT The temps around here have been very close between corrected and uncorrected anyway for the most part. I have seen a max variation in the last week of only about 5whp.

 

So just a quick question, my current dyno chart says CF: STD. So what correction factor is that? How do I know that those are not "corrected" values of some sort even though I"m at sea level?

 

SAE is corrected. When I get to the dyno Monday I will pull the .drf file and put up the uncorrected and STD corrected numbers. We never use SAE, not sure how it got set to that.

 

Just to make my previous statement clear... I think John Reed is MORE than capable of tuning your car and is a great resource for everything tuning related.

In any case I'm glad you got your car figured out.

Nice work Aaron.

 

Aarron, actually my question was not quite right. What I meant to say is that my English Racing dyno chart in the upper right corner says CF: STD. I looked below and it shows that STD: 0.99. So does this mean that your dyno is actually using a correction factor of 0.99? If so how far off is this compared to a fully uncorrected number? Then again how much would this factor compared to a CF of 1.2-1.8 like the one that Albuquerque uses? I'm just trying to get all of this correct in my head.

Thanks

 

1.2-1.8

I think you mean 1.18 to 1.2 Darrell.

Mitch

 

.99 means that number had some taken out of it since the air was colder and better that particular day (I would venture to say 1%) so your uncorrected number would be like 511whp. I went to grab your dynosheet and realised I didnt have your plate number to look it up by, can you PM it to me?

Aaron

 

Here are both corrected and uncorrected numbers. It seems that the tach pickup must have been intermittent because I dont have normal RPM data. As a result no torque numbers

 

Isn't that a little low for 86 numbers?
