I really dont know how much to read into torque

This was my readout with standard everything really

it is an auto and in second gear i think that make abit of a difference with gear ratios etc ( not sure the exact ratio of 2nd compared to a manual in 3rd gear)

Hmm something dodge with that torque readout. Maybe some others more knowledge than I can explain how it could read that. Maybe the one above is also subject to discrepancy via how its measured... but stock doing 800Nm is a 'off' looking lol Also... you're power looks insanely high for a stock GTT/GTST type engine. Aren't dyno runs usually done in 4th or 3rd? Don't recall seeing one in 2nd before.

Maybe this is why my mechanic said he doesn't usually bother measuring torque cos it depends on the dyno setup too heavily? or how its used... or something

Ok yeah im sure that having the car in 2nd gear (not a 1:1 gear ratio) is going to affect the readout somewhat....

Time for a new dyno operator. Doing a dyno run in second is compeltely stupid. Auto's need to be locked into 3rd gear.

Your torque figure is all hot air, realistically, it will be a bit above 500nm.

I've got 720nm with 314rwkw in 4th gear, so if I did my car in second gear, I'd have about 1000nm...

And people wonder why I'm always questioning dyno readouts.. Especially those with a 30degree difference between their ambient and Intake temperatures...

oh, and this is a real curve, done in 4th gear..

I think my torque level takes a nice big dump on yours..[/quo

having your hand on it again as i see..

don't be blind have a look again 693 is not 700 and 844 is 844 and your afr is all over the place great tune.

mainline dynos do not lie .

hand isn't on anything, because how the hell could a smaller turbo make more torque than one significantly bigger?

It doesn't make sense at all.

Oh, and I compared my dyno to the other one done in second gear, not yours. BUt I still find it hard to believe that you are making 800nm from a GTRS - thats not correct. The turbo is simply too small to make that kind of torque.

There is something fishy about your dyno run -

* what gear was it in?

* I'm no expert at dyno settings, but ours are different, most likely why yours is higher.

* Do you have diff gears etc?

Something isn't right.

sorry for the last comment.about your hand, i thought it was for me .

yes its right is your engine full rebuilt with cams and pistons and rods and plenum ect ,if you have any questions on it ill give you the number of the guy who built my engine and you can call him.

this is a older dyno look at the afr if yours was a little like mine same boost you would make more power

well, this is how i see it - THe rods and pistons would make no difference at all to the figures, yours will just last longer.

The cams, well, you have cams, and I have water methanol injection.

So that would balance it out a fair bit.

Strange one this one.

What cams have you guys found to be the best for the GTRS setup? Tomei Poncams 256/256, HKS cams 256/256 or 256/264? Thinking about chucking the cams in a few months time. Just not sure on which ones to go, thinking about the Poncams.

Either that or MAJOR head mods required to fit; possibly also need to go solid lifters :thumbsup:

Hmmm i think i might stick to the poncams for the time being, don't think my wallet is going to like doing major headwork at the moment lol. I've done a bit of searching on whether the HKS 256/264 setup is better then say a Poncam 256/256 for my amount of mods, just everyone has so many different opinions on it. Obviously for a more extreme setup the larger cams would be good, just not sure for my setup what would give the best results.

i see your 1/4 mile time and you got a 114mile/hour, last time i went i got 118 mile/hour it with a bad start well a totally shit one really ,i happen to see 2rismo who thank god was trying to help me out and he was pretty sure that i should get a 11.8 but the rain came and that was the end of supernats .so back to what i said be for the car is what it is whether you want to believe it or not.also pistons are 20 thou over size reco head plenum ect don't know if it makes a difference on your scale of things!!!!!

at the end of the day this is all starting to be come a school quarrel over who has the better toy!!!

so if it makes you feel better you have the better toy !!

have a look if you want to .

Just trying to find some answers. THis torque reading is fairly high, and imo too high for a GTRS so I am wondering why for a number of reasons:

1. Maybe I could replicate it on my setup

2. Maybe My setup is low on torque

3. Is the dyno reading incorrectly

Just a note - 118mph is a high trap speed. My mate with an XR6T ran 118mph with 310rwkw and 900nm.

Are you sure you're running 260rwkw or could you be higher, but the dyno actually read less?

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
