Even @ 330rwkw on E85/.63 - that is pushing then limits of believable. But at least its almost believable rather than outright fudge.

Maybe low 20's its believable (330rwkw that is). A 3582 .82 wouldn't make that much "claimed power" at those boost levels on E85.

you know trent from status uses the same dyno... with the same calibrations, and has had similar results on customers cars with a similar turbo set up?

everyones quick to jump on the dyno debate. If we had a drag strip in SA i would seriously consider it... with previous tune of 360 rwkw's i managed a 1:18 flay around mallala in a drift car on street tyres. this was beating 330 rwkw gtr's that were done on a mainline dyno (willall) so clearly some of you need to pull your heads out of your arseholes and face reality that such results possible.

ever think that maybe mainlines read low? I had an RB20 r32 ages ago with a 25 turbo on it with an EEPROM chip remapped. made 148 rwkw on a mainline.. where as on a roller dyno (DD) it made 180 rwkw.. and on the AMM hub dyno made 185 rwkw with the same correction metiod.

19psi though mate...

5557 .63 made that same power (roughly) on >30psi of boost. Albeit on a 2L SR engine, it's still something. Why do SO MANY people make around the 300rwkw mark on 1psi less? Surely there isn't 90kw difference in reading between the dynos....

Just know that it's all about how much you enjoy the car, and how well it performs - a dyno is simply a number, and doesn't mean ANYTHING in some cases. This is one of those cases...

the whole point is that a 3076 cant push enough air to make 400rwkw.

and its very misleading to forum users that think they can go out and get a 3076 and make 400rwkw its just not goint to happen. its a 300rwkw turbo with E85 you can get 340-350rwkw out of them thats about it.

yes your correct becuase thats exactly what it did.....

the car in question was initially tuned on this dyno by amm using those exact corrections so i gave simon that graph today purely as a direct comparison to how it was before. the result be a 40odd kw increase over the previous setup. i had no real choice there.

i did todays whole retune using more "roller correct" corrections and in actual fact it produced 357kw. i dont think that turbo is gonna do too much more and i had no interest in trying. the result was great as it was.

at the end of the day, its a tuning aid and a VERY good one! the 397 was merely a reperesentation of todays gain.

I don't know what dyno it was on, but I remember recently someone pushing around the 400rwkw mark from a 3076 of some kind, but on a ridiculous boost level around 30psi - WELL out of efficiency

i bet they'd find that if they dropped the boost and tuned it accordingly, the loss would not be dramatic.:thumbsup:

I must have the wrong thread here I thought it was the 400rwkw thread, not the 390rwkw thread. Can anyone link me please? :whistling:

Lol, so true.

Im pretty sure the dyno blew up when he recorded a power level of over 9000

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
