Andrew from AM Performance ran his car on the same dyno at Jason, and made 308rwkw, then went down the road to the Willall mainline and made 249rwkw. just to give you an idea of the difference

at the end of the day its for tuning, not for bragging

tis annoying how some dynapack owners dont calibrate it properly though.

trent runs the same dyno and has his reading within a few kw of a dd for when he does printouts.

makes a lot more sense for comparisons

How is reading DD like dynos "properly" calibrated?

What he means is that most dynapack dynos read significantly higher than a DD dyno in the norm and trents one pretty much is spot on with other DD ones which arent happy so it makes for a better comparison with other peoples results.

There are 4 calibrations for different regions (like usa which use old std) and test procedures:

SAE

DIN

and two others i cant think off.. lol (as i never change it)

some of the operators in sa seem to always run theirs in the old standard which inflates power... have bought this up a few times with them as they give the dyno a bad name even though its actually far more accurate.... hell i could have got a 4wd roller for the price of my new 2wd dynapack...

on top of every dyno sheet from dynapack is the correction type used, if it isnt in SAE J1349 (2004) ask it to be changed. Also like any dyno make sure the Air intake temp probe is set to ambient and is reading real ambient temperature

Almost a direct overlay of my T67 set up on the same type on dyno with the same correction... Actually uncanny!

Which begs the question, how much boost?

Yellow run was 17.10psi

Green run was 18.36psi

Is there SAE J1349 a separate setting to SAE? I always have used SAE... and "inflates power" is surely a relative term, regardless. So long as all details are considered it is what it is, I'd call it more "inflated" where people reduce smoothing in the hope spikes will boost the #s.

Unopened rb25

Gt3076. 82 IW

Caltex eflex

310rwkw 16psi

320rwkw 18psi

Leak in cooler piping/plenum that needs to be fixed then its back for a tune as it wont hold more than 16 psi and sounds like I got a midget under the bonnet blowing a trumpet lol

Damn that lil midget bastard gets around! he was under my bonnet too lol

and the funny thing? both are mainlines.

use this formula:

mods: PowerFC, GT3037 Garret, 0.6 cpm Cover, 0.63 rear housing, 18psi, Nismo 555s, 3inch turbo back exhaust, 600x300x75mm intercooler, Split Fires, NGK BKR7E plugs, Water Methanol injection, 275ml min nozzle.

fuel: Shell 98

power: 320rwkw, 720nm Torque @ 3200rpm

oil: Shell Helix 5w40 fully synthetic

useage: Every day

lifespan: Lasted 4 years, until I decided to upgrade to RB2530. Engine was still 100% compression wise when sold. 165psi accross all 6 cylinders.

failure: none

comments: Was an awesome car to drive. I did all the tuning myself.

    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
    • There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
