Take the car to the drags again. If your terminal speed is up on last time then no drama.

No harm in having a safe tune, dyno's are only a tuning tool.

Looking at the graph against AFR can help tell you if there is more in it to extract of course, the final number is not important. It is the change in number and it's magnitude across the graph that indicates good things.

Don't get hung up on dyno comparisons, whats the point in having a peice of paper that says 200rwkw if someone can show you one with 170rwkw for the same type of car. A that car is faster and more powerfull where it shows up and where it counts, on the track.I lost count of the number of times I've seen it and the number of people who don't get it years ago.

Just don't sweat it mate.

Well written..i guess it the knowledge of knowing whether your car is running safe and giving you the HP you need. I too don't believe in number...just want my ride to be reliable with many years of joyride left in it. Cheers!

Wot he said above, i agree!! but in saying that every1 would want their car to be making as much pwr at the wheels as possible. I would be disapointed with that personally considering wots been done. Before i put on my pod and was still running standard boost i was making 183rwkws. on my 34 now i got safc2, 3" kakimoto, pod running 0.8 and i made just over 200. Id be getting a 2nd oppinion. Just book it in 4 a pwr run, for like $50 and if ur AFR's are looking crazy on the 2nd dyno get them to do a retune and see wot it gets then. :D

Sounds about right...

Mine's putting out 186 rwkw @ .8 bar on a safe tune with the following mods (also runs 13.9 down the strip @ 100mph on a crap 60ft):

Apexi pod filter

Power FC

Blitz EBC

Front pipe

High flow cat

Cat back zorst

... running standard SMIC and turbo though and wouldn't even contemplate boosting any higher than .8 bar without a turbo that can cope with it.

Cheers.

There seems to be a bit of a pattern here, a lot of the guys that are quoting higher boost levels are actually seeing less power. This seems to indicate that possibly other things need to be changed for it to be worth while running the car at such high boost levels.

I'm not saying this is conclusive, but there is such a thing as too much boost. I'd like to know what would happen with the same car with the boost wound down to more like 10 -12 psi. Perhaps the car is getting excessive knock or something?

Also I'm not sure what pressure the intake valves can take before they start to have trouble shutting, I've heard that this can sometimes be an issue.

Personally just from seeing cars on a dyno day, of the cars that were running high boost levels it was only the ones that were well soughted out that were pulling deacent figures, all others were dissapointed.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics

      @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?

      Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
