Hey all,

Couple of months ago, i had my car dyno'd and got around 157.3kw atw, with afr around the 11-12 mark.

Mods;

- batmbl front/dump

- xforce hiflow cat

- apexi catback

- ARC 110mm SMIC

- Standard boost - leaking to about 12.5psi~

- Splitfire coilpacks

(here is a dyno scan of 150.3kw, dont have a copy of the 157.3kw run which included a new dump/front + cat)

Had another dyno run today at Swinburn Tafe and confused about the results..

*note; when the car was on the rollers, it was vibrating real badly too, he suggested it may have not been tied down properly or something..

The differences between last dyno and this one;

- New O2 sensor

- Installed a socket into my ecu for future remapping. (Standard chip in ecu, just installed a socket and plugged standard chip back into ecu)

For the past 2 years all my dyno runs have had an AFR reading of 11-12..

Why has it dropped all the way down to 10 resulting in a large loss of power :P

Thanks

Patrick

If the ecu detected knkock, then it would have reverted to the low octane map, which i richer. Have you tried resetting the scu?

hmm you could be onto something.

It could be a result to the problem with my car.

As the car was left to idle before it got onto the dyno it was starting to miss, guess it might have been on safe map as it was run on the dyno?

Probaly your o2 sensor that needs replacing. Check with datascan/consult for fluctuations in o2 readings. When o2's stop working properly the ecu reverts to a safety map and dumps more fuel.

yeah im thinking its my o2 sensor.

When i rev in neutral the o2 voltage doesnt fluctuate. It just stays at a constant voltage.

Although ive heard that o2 sensor doesnt affect the car on full throttle so wouldnt make it run rich?

I'll get the o2 sensor replaced anyways, cause its the only thing which has been changed since last dyno...

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
