451awkw won the Auto Salon dyno??? :D

6 cyl AWD...720kw won Power Champion (Mr HDT blown VK)

Not a bad result though for Dave's genuine daily commuter vehicle.

(not too many cars get driven to and from work every day 40mins each way with that sort of mumbo)

Its the 2nd car in the pics. Its our time attack car we ran at Superlap.

I tuned the car in about an hour on friday night and settled for a boost, timing and fuel level that the engine was the happiest at. The injector size limited the level of boost i could wind into it (700cc's)

both cars pictured both sported built engines with HKS T04Z's except the blue one has a shot of NOS

needless to say we had it more than covered.

Yes Richard the car is nuts on the road with massive power and excellent throttle response. I was a very nervous passenger on the trip from the dyno to Autosalon.

Was it a pump fuel or race fuel tune dg?

Sunoco...it made 420awkw at 22psi on BP98...we put the Sunoco in and it went backwards to 390 odd kw. Then i adjusted the timing and leaned it off (Sunoco is a slow burning fuel and likes it lean with lots of timing) and power started to climb again. Then once the correct plugs were fitted it really started to make the power it should have. Then a couple more psi of boost until we saw 450kw (600hp) at the treads.

A more experienced tuner may have gotten more power but considering my limited experience it was as far as i was confident of pushing it without hurting it.

did you end up hireing turbotechnics's dyno mate?

nah we didn't have it ready to run until after 6 friday night due to us wasting too much time trying to get mine finished... so we took it down to Chris Bale's at Toronto. Chris offered to stay open as long as we needed which was great of him but we only needed an hour.

Thanks again for your help.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
