New Dyno 5/11/04,10psi
Went and got dyno'd again today, a lil better results than last time....Tuned it at 10psi and pure methanol. I have had good luck at 10psi and I think I will stay there... Played with the intercooler sprayer with inconsistent results. Turned it off and used the VAFC2 to lean it out a little and squeeze out 10whp more from last time. It was a warm humid 80 degree day so it should be off a little. Maybe 10hp more on a cool day.
Keep in mind there was no fan infront of the car blowing on the intercooler. Most shop use a huge Hollywood style fan to blow on the engine and the intercooler to simulate the air that you would have blowing on it keeping it cool on the road.

Very nice, that A/F ratio looks better....

So lets say I am at 230whp at 10psi.
That shou be about 250whp at 12psi. maybe slightly less.
So my math says 250whp plus 20% loss to the ground gives me 300hp at the crank...
Can I say I have a 300hp car or would that be a lie?

Rep Power: 349 drivetrain loss in a 5sp. will only be 10-15%... auto 20%... so its a lie.. sorry .. i would like to see you get up to 300hp at the crank that would be sweet on a d17

Rep Power: 326 I see that you used pure methanol, wherre did you buy it? I have a place that offers methanol but they offer about 10 different types...
of the 10, I'm assuming either purified methanol or absolute methanol... Any of those work?

"well i called yesterday and today, and i had no idea all you guys have been waiting for a response, my switch for my alcy injection died when i was at 9.5psi and i almost blew my motor! my sparkplugs were destroyed and the bolts that hold the exhaust were blown loose..."
Be careful. It would suck if you were racing one of these people for 5 bills and your junk blew up...

Rep Power: 0 Yeah, I thought so.....it was more like you had good luck when you were dynoing and the sh*t just hit the fan this time. Be careful man, you don't want to become Avis' bit(h.
