Had a dyno gathering in town here tonight.

Wanted to see what the stag did before i start doing any major mods.

So far its just fmic and 3" exhaust turbo back with an apexi pod. rs4 s2 auto

Got 186.2 was pretty happy with that. Leaving there i raced my mate in his vz ss ute which got 280 and it was pretty even. I think i started pulling away but had to brake.

Dunno how that works, power/weight ratio should have been way in his advantage

anyway, couple of vids. the first one is just a short one

second vid is longer and better quality of all 3 power runs. Note at 1:38 some smartass in the crowd behind me says 'not bad for a volvo'

and a pic of the readout..

Sounded so good up in the rev range screaming along :P

thats really weird

kidafa had a 3" dump, gutted cat, 3 1/4" cat back, ebc at 12, safc2, sitc, fmic, pod. splitfires... i think thats all the perfomance mods.... and he made 178 or sumthing at the rears :S.....

i make it 139kw for the rest of us that live in the metric age.

yeah i was looking at the 186 and thinking that sounded a bit high for just fmic and 3" exhaust (and pod) with no tuning.

An SAFC or eManage (better) and a boost controller would see this climb to around 160awkw at around 11-12psi I'd say.

The aftermarket piggyback ecu is really needed to get the best from the exhaust and especially if you increase boost.

At the moment it will be running quite rich with that exhaust...and my guess is it'll be around 10psi (the reduction in pressure after the turbo increases max boost).

the neo's put out a higher out put stock and sounds like it could be a high reading dyno. Thats a VERY good figure for minimal mods.

lol, I read the original post & thought; 'even for rwkw that's pretty damn high, wtf?'

:down:

Either way, it's a reasonable figure for stock management, and makes me pretty happy with the numbers I'm getting, considering that my exhaust is stock from the cat back & I'm only running an S2 intercooler (but plan on mounting up my old AiResearch FMIC once I get the spigots upsized from 2" to 2.25")

I have only one suggestion: Do what Steve says and get some extra management / boost controlling happening. Then you'll be getting some real bang-for-buck.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
