Hey Guys,

Well, we took the car back for day #2 of dynoing the RB26DETT 240SX..

Yesterday, we experienced some motor knock, and found out the timing was advanced to 22 degrees...

Today, we retarded the timing to 18 degrees and gapped the spark plugs to 0.8....

At factory PSI, the car dynoed 251kw, and 263.6 lbs of torque...93 octane pump gas..

At 14.7 PSI , car dynoed 286kw and 318.3 lbs of torque...93 octane pump gas..

I believe with a SAFC, we can smooth out the power curve and pick up another 12-19 kw....

Here's the dyno graphs showing baseline and high boost...chart shows rear wheel Horse Power as measured on Dyno Jet...

For reference, my stock motor from a R32 made 253rwkw @ 1 bar dynodynamics, but that is the usual 98 octane.

93 octane would be a serious disadvantage, and, although its hard to estimate I'd figure with my basic math it'd be somewhere between 190rwkw and 205rwkw dynodynamics.

There is certainly a bit more power in a better tune

My motor is a R33 RB26DETT....

Keep in mind, I am RWD! The motor is in a 240SX (AU 200SX/Silvia)

I don't lose anywhere close to the drivetrain loss you AWD guys do...

And while the difference in your dyno dynamics is different, it's not that big...

I will get some dyno comparisons, but its no more than 20kw from seing my friends cars...

Most of us GTR boys don't do awd dynos, we drop our front shaft, and go on a RWD dyno...

My RB26DETT stock motor/ecu, with adjustable cam gears and an exaust, boost uped to 1bar (~15psi) pulls about 280rwkw in shootout mode, which is considered good on standard turbos/cams etc....

Maybe you have adjustable cam gears? where do you find boost coming on full?

You can't draw a "direct comparision" between the US Dynojet power figures vs. the Aussie Dyno Dynamics - simple as that! The same car run on both dynos back to back would give a markedly different result... the higher figure being on a dynojet.

The late Todd Wilkes did quite a bit of research into these two dynos and published the results for all to see on his website - http://www.twinturbov8.com/dynostuff.htm

This is not an attempt to take anything away from your results underground... just stating some basic facts bewteen the two dynos.

two.06l: adjustable cam gears ? what ECU? what boost?

no cam gears as yet, power fc running default map on 15psi. we are shooting for over 300rwkw. have just fitted engine pipes, will be fitting cam gears(with DIRTgarages secret specs) and going for a full tune.300 should not be too far away.

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
