Came across a fella on another forum today who reckoned he was making 300kw/400hp on 16 pounds with these :D Gave me the lol's

dont laugh, my mate is making 286kw @ 14.5psi with gt-ss

Hmmm interesting. But then and again I was making about 350hp with the ceramics at about 1 bar. I guess that with awesome turbos and an equally awesome tuner these crazy figures are possible.

Also, according to that chart flowing around the twin -9's are rated at about 560ps...but I'm pretty sure that's taken at the engine??? So if you were to account for drive train loses....you'd be getting back down to somewhere around the 480-500 mark. (don't know the conversion factor for ps to hp of the top of my head either....but i think they're fairly closer, a lot closer than hp to kw)

why only 14.5psi?

Very true that one!

Anyone know what the -9 / GTSS sweet spot is....ie, their zone of peak efficiency? I'm guessing it would lie somewhere around the 18 mark as mine go beserk there....

Did he tune it?

what gear is your new dyno run done in? I assume all tuneres use same gear, as max kw at 170kph dosent sound to practical, I pretty much wanna know power in 2nd or 3rd gear at 6k rpm....if thoes sort of graphs are even avalibe? I haven't looked to much into the dyno grqph side of things yet

You cant be serious

Different cars use a different gear on the dyno for a 1:1 drivetrain ratio

Dafaq?

6k rpm at wot and max boost will see the same power no matter what gear it's in

Like i said, I assume, as im not sure, you did not answer my question, let's just say anything over 110 is useless, your dyno shows about 150 kw at 110....like I said not surw how these things work/read

    • That's not a transistor --- it's marked ZD1 which makes it a zener diode. As to what the breakdown voltage is, not enough there to divine.
    • Hi all, Long time since I've posted here. Looking for some advice on what I can remove to further identify the cause of my issues.  I can move the passenger seat forward and back but the knob used to adjust the seat angle is pretty much free spinning, there's very little resistance.  Removing the side cover I can see that the chain is intact but the shaft for the adjustment spins without the gear attached to it moving.  What's my next step for disassembly here? Is this a common fault? Just being a little cautious as I didn't want to start removing bolts for a spring to fly out or something equally as stupid.  Cheers
    • The incentives are mostly the same, yes. Ethanol is cheap compared to the cost of doing 98-100 RON with crude oil alone. 87 to 93-94 AKI all with E10. In 2020 Canada mandated E10 as a part of their "renewable fuel standard" and is supposedly going to go to E15 in 2030. In California where there are only 8 refineries with two threatening to shut down next year it's been over 20 years now of E10 and 91 AKI maximum because there's just not enough refinery capacity or crude oil supply relative to the demand for premium unleaded fuel. And CARB's low carbon fuel standard means functionally none of the diesel available at the pump is made from crude oil anymore. It's almost all entirely 20% biodiesel blended with 80% renewable diesel (hydrotreated vegetable oil) now. The number of gasoline vehicles that support E15 or higher ethanol concentrations is surprisingly low, I can't imagine it being wise to play tricks like this without flex fuel sensors in most of the fleet.
    • It's almost certainly the same as the one next to it.

    • South Australia, which is hardly as far behind as the rest pf Oz makes out, and who is also not a paragon of progressiveness (read that as over-legislation) in the area of vehicle standards, has this to say on the subject: Adjustable coil-over suspension Aftermarket adjustable coil-over suspension components are suspension units that incorporate an external thread on the main body and corresponding threaded spring saddle that allows the vehicle's suspension height to be varied. If fitting aftermarket or coil-over suspension components you must submit an Application to modify a light motor vehicle form and a report from a light vehicle engineering signatory (LVES).
