Good morning, gents.

So, the timing belt saga was officially put to bed on Saturday. Dex and I compression tested the ol' girl and she did 170-170-170-175 so she's no worse for the wear.

I also changed the plugs (after 60k, whoops! ) and it's running a whole lot better...nice smooth idle and pulling a lot harder to redline.

I am desperately in need of a tune, but that will come...

How'd you all do on the dyno? Vegas- I hear congratulations are in order?!?

 

Seriously, I was nervous riding in 'patches' without one. It is not your driving skills, just the lack of trust in teh other drivers on the roads

yeah im out turco. i will be in london.

 

Turco, my friends with the SRT-4s are still in.

What did you all put down on DSG's dyno, I want to compare - I dyno'd there almost exactly a year ago!

 

Anyone up for meeting up and going to the Wicked CAS meet this coming Sunday??? Weather pending, I wanna go. I think in the thread made about this, I see a pic of Kevins car... Looks like a decent turnout and not that far away.

.......anyone interested...????

I think Kevin and I are going to the WPI show...or (this.?) lol

 

anj, I'll post up my graph when I can....I put down approx. 271 HP, and 300 ft/lbs torque...at 22 psi.... I did however pick up over 100 ft/lbs of torque by 3100/3200 rpm than it did on the first run...pulls wayyy harder than before!


on 93 octane of course

Power Mods...

Turbo XS FMIC/UICP
AMS LICP
Hallman Pro RX MBC
Megan DP
Perrin HFC
Fujitsubo RM-01A Catback
Apex'i Intake


It put down about what I was expecting...the dyno is just a number and when comparing dynos they are all different, but it definitely feels a hell of a lot more solid and smoother, it just wants to keep pulling, even at 120+

 

how did Kevin do this time around, and Tim?

I put down 296whp and 313wtq on April 9 I believe last year, w/ a full bolton Evo 8 - everything but an UICP and bigger turbokit!

 

542awhp
465awtq
with more power in her, just need to lower those intake temps 140* at higher rpms (not good) and hold the boost a bit better

600awhp or bust on DSG's dyno by summer

 

ctrl-x!

 

I think Kev put down...303 if I can remember correctly..and Tim...undetermined..but I think about 275-285 or around there..?

 

I take it that was on VP Import? That is ridonkulous power man

 

I will have to get my graph from DSG. I forgot to get it before I left. I developed an issue holding boost on the 6th or 7th pull. At that point, I believe Chris said I was at 260+whp and about 285awtq, but he wasn't done tuning. I will try to get what the 6th pull put down. So, I got what I could up until my boost issue occured. A retune in the near future is a must for me.

 

Didn't Kevin put down like 313 or something last year???
