Ref the other Dyno thread.. thats how you convert it.. thats why I said what's shown on the dyno graph probably isn't relative to actual torque.. I think it's some sort of different measurement called "tractive effort".. You'll have to ask our resident dyno operators..

This was the First ever Shootout in Perth in Accredited shootout mode.We updated the weather conditions for every car using the weather station on the wall so your readings were very accurate and any body that thinks the readings were wrong can fax their graph to Dyno Dynamics and they can tell you every thing i did right or wrong by the details on the bottom of the page.

I garranty that this was the most accurate Dyno comp ever in Perth.

Awesome day well organized and run.

Couldnt help notice the two highest readings came from 4 cylinder cars.....hmmmm?(stir stir)

Maybe the six cylinder tractors can compete next time!

Damn I should have turned up :rofl: Just need maybe 1/2 a psi of boost to beat that 344hp :)

was a good day

congrats to john for his 299.5hp with his stock turbo'd soarer (not flowed either) only just beaten in 2.5 litre class by big turbo/external gate equipped r33 which beat him by like 3hp hehe

look forward to the next one

So when do we see the results!?

Yeah do we have a listing of yet of all the winners and power readings? or are we still waiting for the drug test to come through?

P.S Steve thanks for your help the other day! Sly running nicely now!

Will be in the next dyno comp!!

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
