First Dyno Run

[mjones]

hey all, just thought i'd share my first dyno run results,i'm pretty happy with it! Let me know what you all think about it.

Mods are arc front mount, 5zigen exhaust and a kn pannel filter

[r33cruiser]

thats a really nice curve for a stock ecu man. i have a huge dip just before the peak of mine :S

[R34GTFOUR]

but those afr are dirty.

get a safc at the very least (or powerfc if you have the cash) and you'll notice a nice jump in midrange and topend power

[mjones]

yea the bloke who dyno'd it said it's one of the better series 1's that are standard that he has seen,next to come is allitle more boost,those new eboost's look awsome

would it be worth getting a powerfc without the controller?

[R34GTFOUR]

would it be worth getting a powerfc without the controller?

yeah, the hand controller tends to be more of a visual aid then anything. Most tuners just plug in a laptop to tune the powerfc than use the handcontroller. Personally i would spend the extra 200 on the controller, but thats just me cause i like to fiddle with things haha.

the tuner said it's running rich and a few more psi would help that alot,i have a manual boost controller here would it be worth putting that on?

thats abit scary... whos your tuner?

you'll notice an increase if you bump up the boost, and its probably the best bang for your buck mod you can do. Although thats not going to help with your afr, the ecu is already running rich and its going to continue overcompensating fuel, ie running rich. The only thing to help you with that is a piggyback like a safc, or a new ecu like powerfc.

it's not my tuner it was just the guy at carline,which safc would u recomend?

[bazr33]

how far are you wanting to go with you car?

how much power do you want?

what are you using it for?

this will determine what is going to be the best option as terms with cost efficiency for future modifications and your car running at its optimum level.

I remember, i started with a 121rwkw with an auto. Its now manual and will have 300rwkw when it goes on the dyno again.

[mjones]

i just use it as a street car,can't really say daily driver cos i only drive it maybe once every 2 weeks,I'd be happy with 200 rwkw but i dont want major mods(less hassel from the cops that way) money's no problem.

[r33cruiser]

see what i mean man, if u compare your graph to mine, s1.5 r33t, with fmic and exhaust.

U ARE DOING PRETTY WELL!!!

*P.S just to add a tag on here man. i have adjusted my fuel prs, now it runs crazily rich and on 8psi. so could i run 12-14psi well?, i used to hit a brick wall/flat spot at 12psi

is that with the standard ecu?if it is how come it dips like that mate?

[r33cruiser]

yer stock ecu

3" exhaust

monkey warehouse fmic kit

fpr

bosch 040

boost controller on 8psi

pod with shield

nfi why it does that hey. it was my first dyno on a dyno day.

but at time of dyno i had an 02 sensor that was on the way out, and plugs over 1yr old

i think that may be the reason

but changed that now

does it drive any different when it diped?

[r33cruiser]

i never noticed it.... atleast not now.

strange,so which safc would everyone recomend?

[r33cruiser]

neo. only because it has the ability to control the ncvs system.

origiginal safc's only adjust fuel and air neglecting the timing etc, leading to issues

[bazr33]

this would be my path i would take if you plan to have 200rwkw.

aftermarket ecu. Power fc are one of the most reputable ecus around.

some people have made it to 200rwkw on the standard turbo, but with being a bush bearing with ceramic wheel i wouldn't risk it.

limit on the standard turbo is about 12psi.

Also i would consider updating your injectors as they will get close to running on max duty cycle and also your air flow metre

Turbo- pretty much the best option and to retain standard manifold and not resorting to an externally wastegated turbo would be a GCG highflow turbo being ball bearing and having steel wheels, you can push the boost up to a greater limit then ya standard turbo and will easily hit 200rwkw.

GCG highflows are capable of seeing 260rwkw.

So my opinion if i was in your shoes i would look into

ECU

Split dump - less restriction

injectors

AFM

Highflow turbo

And then possibly blow off valve for better control and no leak.

there you will have 200rwkw and also and then some if you wanted.
