just went in to get my car tuned up. had a bit of a fault with the power fc so i had to send it back to the factory to get it checked out, but still had the boost controller put in using .7 bar boost and achieved a crappy 170rwkw.

the car currently has a FMIC, full 3" turbo back exhaust, Pod and is boosted to .7 bar which gave me 170rwkw, compared to HPIs Project R34 Car which made 180rwkw with just .7 bar boost and catback + front pipe.

i have all the advantages here (FMIC, POD, Dump pipe, High FLow Cat) and still came sort 10rwkws.

is that possible?

what are all u guys getting?

I will be getting mine tuned in a couple of weeks. Has a Power FC, split dump / front pipe, metal high flow cat, 3" cat back, pod filter and CAI, and is running about 11psi. I am hoping for around 200rwkw but it is largly up to the dyno it is on too.

Your complaining over a 10kw difference? Nevermind the fact you didnt have it run up on the same dyno!

agreed

each dyno is different.

Simple as that.

If you made more power on the same dyno than you did before the mods... & car feels better.

Then thats all there is too it

Double the mods? What, an FMIC and pod filter? Neither of which are going to give you any more power....

are u on drugs mate?

a car that didnt have a FMIC, no pod, no dump pipe, no cat, got an extra 10rwkws.

if i had the same mods and i was short 10kws fair enough but just the amount of things i had over the other car should of at least put me ahead of him by 10 not behind.

just think about it for a second, no FMIC which means temps would be pretty high on a boosted up car, no pod(fair enough maybe not a big gain here but still adds!!), no cat or dump pump...which is wdh in my opionion...u got 3" of air slammin down the front then all of a sudden into a shiet box of a cat.......

all im saying is how da hell did i come up short...and was wondering what other r34 owners came up with.

I hear HKS stickers give you 10kw extra.........EACH!! ......

hey ur pretty funny man, has anyone told u about being a comedian.....extra thumbs up for the joke u thought up urself aswell....lol....loser........

fair enough i guess....but just mind boogled me seriously......honestly was expecting ALOT more

Missing some stickers?

As everyone else said different dynos would give different values.

Take it down a 1/4 mile see what you get.

Power is all relative..

For what other people get. Yea it's a long thread.. :)

The FMIC is not really going to make much difference at that boost / power level, the factory R34 SMIC's are pretty good. And the pod filter will bugger all to over a decent panel filter in the factory air box.

i agree dynos are all diffrent we had a vy ss ute running big mods fmic,supercharged,cams tune bla bla blaa it got 389rwkw on shoot out mode on a dyno dynamics (the same dyno that capa have used with nearly all of there devolpment cars ),the next day took it down to a motor show rolled it on a unknown brand dyno look pretty god dam old pulled 314rwkw pretty upsetting

there is always a diffrence in dyno readout there a tuning tool

did you have the same tourque as that other r34 or less or more

how many klms does it have compaired to this other r34

remember they are a tunning tool

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
