M35 Wins Re Customs Dyno Day Shootout

[scotty nm35]

Its more than he was willing to do, fair enough. If it were me...

He just needs another pair of hub dynos, or some rollers bolted to the ground under the front wheels would do the job.

Just got back from RE, Cihan managed to wring 211awkw out of it on 98, mods since last week's 195 tune were the plenum spacer, thanks Cam, and the 610cc injectors.

Then I dumped 60L of E85 in the tank, add 20% fuel to the map and instantly power shot up, we only advanced the timing 1 degree, boost 1 psi and as you can see, it made heaps more power right through, nearly 40awkw in the midrange. Needless to say I am very happy with the result.

Next will be the ecu reflash to rid it of the throttle lag, then if that doesnt work, the cable throttle will go on.

Nice work Scottie....but you have to stop soon as you are just tempting me to spend more money on my car....LOL

Very nice Sir... very nice indeed.

So if we went on the previous calibration of the RE dyno it would be around the 250 mark, as predicted, yes?

Is there any reason in particular that Cihan decided to stop at 1 degree advancement though?

hmm... 630nm does sound lovely... so what are the rules governing piggyback ECU's for E85???

More timing would just wear the piston skirts and I dont need the extra powah, or do I? Maybe next tune I will bump it up a bit just to see. As far as legality, I think you know the answer Cam.

You're right Andy, I have to stop sometime, but not yet.

lol...

I think you will be happy with that power figure for about 2 months (max).

I thought as much regarding the ECU, but I hadn't heard anything and I thought that maybe you had... oh well

hmmmm......guess that puts VIC infront in the KW's for the NM35.

So what am I chasing 211AWKW's on 98?.....only 9AWKW's to go! Might have to do something about that!

We should set up a Dyno shootout between the 2 states.....in Albury or Wodonga?

Wonder what mine will do on a dyno with some Sunoco.....think we might have some laying around somewhere.

In all seriousness.....well done Scott......we just need to get SAS into gear now aye! ....starting to catch the tractor motors now aye!!!

lol.... 211.... sorta.

Remember when he dyno'd after installing the intake pipe? That same dyno read 221awkw.

Then at the dyno shoot out it read ~20awkw lower for some reason.

Would need to see it on a different dyno methinks, but I can tell you one thing... that damn thing f**king MOVES now.

Considerably faster than before (it actually pushed me well back in my seat last night - hadn't done that before @ "221awkw").

The dyno has to be reading low as Scotty's M35 is, from my experience, easily quicker than a 2009 Audi S5 Coupe

Yep, would be pretty happy with that

Theres definitely alot more room in the e85 tuning, my series one 260RS has had major power gains since tuning on e85, the extra octane allows for alot more timing without pinging. On 98 pump fuel i was making 313rwkw on 19psi, and at that stage it started to pick up a bit of pinging, so we decided to retune on e85 to see the difference. After a retune and seeing the power potential, extra timing and extra boost saw the power leap to 370rwkw on 25psi. We have since done a safe tune on 22psi making 350rwkw. I do have a full forged build though!

Trying for a bite mate?

I think you had better sort out your ecu issues first, wouldnt want the black barge self destructing on the rollers.

Im guessing ive hit my goal of 250, I just havent seen the proof yet. Cihan thinks 260 is attainable on this dyno still but I need this a reliable daily.

Im really thinking of going with his suggestion of Cable throttle, even though I know it will be a can of worms. The throttle lag is very noticeable now. PITA.
